Jeremy Heere is just an average teenager. That is, until he finds out about "The Squip," a tiny supercomputer that promises to bring him everything he desires most: a date with Christine, an invite to the raddest party of the year and a chance to survive life in his suburban New Jersey high school. But is being the most popular guy in school worth the risk? * LOCATION AND DATES Moyse Hall Theatre, 853 Sherbrooke St W, Montreal, Quebec H3A 0G5 October 4th, 6th, 7th @ 7:30PM October 7th @ 2:00PM * TICKETS - GENERAL ADMISSION $45 - Regular price $35 - Discounted price (QDF members, Equity members, Students, Seniors) $25 - Student group price (minimum 15 tickets, appropriate for ages 12+, email us to book group tickets) NO REFUNDS.
