Oklahomans for Equality is excited to present our inaugural Tulsa Fringe Festival, a celebration of bold creativity and original voices. The Tulsa Fringe Festival is all about highlighting performances and art that push boundaries—featuring theater, comedy, dance, music, and visual works that bring new perspectives to our community. It’s a place where artists can experiment, where audiences discover fresh ideas, and where diversity of expression is not only welcome but celebrated.
