However, you will be listed online, and all the other benefits of registration.

Final Registration of Project with Fringe is Short!
The final registration is short, and a bit repetitive. The biggest thing about it is that it is going to ask you to sign a contract with Fringe.
Early Registration
The above sample is the early registration prices. These will go up after January 10th. So register quickly! If you are unsure of what you should be paying, please let us know. If you get it wrong, you will have to pay the full amount to be in the Fringe Program.
Paypal
Just like the initial application this form and paypal will talk to each other, and it won't be considered complete until you pay. The submit button will take you to paypal to pay by credit card (again you don't have to be part of paypal to use this site - select just pay by credit card).
Receipt:
You should then get an email receipt from paypal, and a confirmation email of registration from Pittsburgh Fringe.
THAT's IT!!!
Anything Else?
When you filled out the long part of the application, you should go back there regularly and make sure your marketing material is up to date. Below is a screenshot of a sample Project Page. This is your project base leading up to, and during the festival. Notice you'll be able to check on Tickets, Reviews, Press, and do all the Admin for your show right here!
