Fringe review: Whiteface

Whiteface
• 4 stars out of 5
• Stage 4, Academy at King Edward
There’s little in the way of subtlety to be found in Whiteface, and why should there be? Summed up in early dialogue as two Indigenous performers pretending to be white who are pretending to be Indigenous, the short (45 minute) production simultaneously eviscerates and blows up stereotypes, both First Nations and colonists, and maybe the time for soft pedalling is passed.
Writer/performers Todd Houseman and Lady Vanes
