Let Your Fringe Flag Fly! The 34th Annual Orlando International Fringe Festival is finally here! From May 13-26, Loch Haven Park (as well as other areas of Orlando) will come alive with over 1,000 ticketed performances, an eclectic visual art gallery, kids’ activities, a free outdoor stage, and plenty more. While there’s simply too much Fringe to cover in a single article, we will be rolling out a series of posts about this incredible event. In this ninth installment for the 2025 Orlando Fringe season, we’re live-streaming with One Act of the Dead!
As huge fans of this yearly celebration, we’re thrilled to be covering these exceptional artists and creators. A big thank you to Orlando Fringe for inviting us to your media previews!
More About One Act of the Dead
Ready for a behind-the-scenes look at indie horror filmmaking? Join the cast and crew as they shoot a one-take zombie film, and step into the action as either a member of the “press” or a vitally important “investor.” You’ve been invited to the set to witness the chaos firsthand! Get up close to the movie-making magic, eavesdrop on the backstage drama, or both — the choice is yours in this thrilling “choose your own adventure” experience.

What To Expect In One Act of the Dead
As an outdoor, immersive production, One Act of the Dead offers a unique twist on the traditional stage show. Audience members will gather in front of the Orlando Museum of Art to check in for their experience. After a brief introduction to the characters, guests will be guided around the perimeter of the Museum, traveling over both paved and grassy surfaces. Don’t be shy! Feel free to chat with the characters and get a little nosy. You never know what backstage drama might unfold!
Freaky Thoughts: One Act of the Dead
What an AWESOME experience! One Act of the Dead combines quirky characters, action-packed moments, and just the right amount of bodily fluids to create a fun, memorable night out. If you’re a horror fan, you’ll love the zombie storyline and overall vibe, but even if horror isn’t usually your thing, you’ll still appreciate the immersive environment and clever, innovative storytelling. It’s a blast from start to finish! Go check it out!
Getting Tickets To One Act of the Dead
Tickets for One Act of the Dead and any Orlando Fringe production can be purchased at orlandofringe.org. Because 100% of the base ticket price goes directly to the respective artists (one of the amazing ways Fringe supports both emerging and established creators), you’ll also need to purchase a reusable 2025 Fringe Festival button. Buttons are $10 and grant access to all the performances at this year’s event (along with your individually purchased show tickets). Good news: no matter how many productions you attend, you only need one button per person for the entire festival. You can buy your button online or at the main Fringe campus.
