  "In the spirit of fringe theatre, it was the Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival’s hope that developers would use open data information in creative and unique ways that speak to their audience and customers, just as fringe artists use the Festival as a platform for innovative, revealing theatre.

  The Festival congratulates Gregg and Angela on their winning entry and wishes them the best of luck competing for more than $50,000 in prize money in the Apps4Edmonton contest that wraps up in the fall."
