American High School Theatre Festival

The American High School Theatre Festival (AHSTF) offers a unique opportunity for U.S. high school students to participate in the world renowned Edinburgh Fringe Festival. High school theater programs are chosen annually through a comprehensive nomination and evaluation process. Students in the selected programs travel to London and then on to Edinburgh, where they perform at official Fringe Festival venues and attend other shows and workshops. For more information, visit www.ahstf.org.

As a longtime participant in the fringe theater scene and the author of a novel that revolves around fringe theater, Gary is committed to supporting high school programs chosen for AHSTF. Gary will contribute the net proceeds from copies of his novel BLACK BOX sold through a participating high school program and will also assist in other efforts to raise the funds required to take part in AHSTF. If your high school has been chosen to participate in AHSTF and you would like to enlist Gary’s support, please e-mail Gary at gcole@garydcole.com.
