By Hadas Kuznits

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A lineup of this year's Fringe Arts Festival in Philadelphia has been released.

The Philadelphia Fringe Arts Festival takes place throughout the city September 3rd through the 19th.

Producing artistic director Nick Stuccio says they've curated an eclectic range of performances that address a variety of social issues.

Stuccio singles out a dance piece called "Still Standing You."

"And it's two regular dudes and it's about how can two men relate to each other." says Stuccio. "Physically, they can be brutal with each other, they can be tender with each other; and why can't guys do all that sort of free from the societal conventions about the way we can be men?"

There are also free DJ nights every evening of the festival at the Fringe Arts Headquarters at Columbus Boulevard and Race Street.
