Sure, the Capital Fringe Festival may not begin till July 12, but it's never too early to start preparing for all the impending curious theater acts. In fact, today you can start buying your passes. And while that may not sound like a normal reason to celebrate, since when have the Fringerators (you're welcome) ever been normal? Naturally in their unnaturalness, they decided to team up with the folks of Brightest Young Things to throw a party. Ironically, you do not need a ticket to come to the ticket party.

From 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., back your ass up to the Baldacchino Gypsy Tent Bar at 607 New York Ave., NW, to enjoy drinks, dancing, DJs and discounts. For one day only, get a Fringe Pair Up Pass, in which you'll get two tickets, two buttons and $10 to put toward a bar tab for just $30. (Separately, that'd run you $54.) See why they need the DJs now? It's so you can do your happy dance.
