Watch your back, Woodchuck...From the people who brought you Fringe favourite "Cheerleader", and the Sterling-nominated "Breaking Face", Human Loser Theatre and Allspice Theatre present Morgan Smith and Scott C. Bourgeois' brutal, strange and hilarious new comedy "Game Face" at the 2010 Edmonton Fringe Festival. High school drama has never been so...odd.
