🎭 StageFest Brings Sarasota’s Best Theatre to The Bazaar on Apricot & Lime

A Free Day of Live Performances, Shopping, and Local Flavor – Saturday, January 10 from 10 AM–3 PM

Get ready for a day filled with curtain calls! The Bazaar on Apricot & Lime is presenting StageFest, a celebration of Sarasota’s performing arts scene happening Saturday, January 10 from 10 AM to 3 PM.

This free, family-friendly event will feature live performances all day from some of the area’s top theatre groups, including:

• Dingbat Theatre Project

• The Players

• Belle’s Princess Parties with Jump Encore

• Music Compound

• Urbanite Theatre

• West Coast Black Theatre Troupe

Performance times will be announced closer to the event. Between shows, guests can visit booths from each company to learn about their upcoming seasons and meet the talented performers who make Sarasota “The Cultural Coast.” 

Representatives from Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall and the Sarasota Rising Arts Festival will also be on-site sharing information about upcoming events and initiatives.

Visitors can also explore The Bazaar on Apricot & Lime’s 40+ local creators, artists, and curators, each offering unique handmade goods, art, and treasures. And when hunger strikes, Hamlet’s Eatery, the award-winning onsite food truck, will be serving up delicious lunch options, beverages, and sweet treats.

“StageFest is all about celebrating the amazing local talent that makes Sarasota such a special place to live,” said Bazaar's Kim Livengood. “It’s a fun, relaxed way for people to experience live theatre, shop local, and connect with the community.”

StageFest will take place outdoors at The Bazaar on Apricot & Lime, located at 821 Apricot Ave, Sarasota, FL. Admission and parking are free, and the event is family- and pet-friendly.
