The Bidding War Sold Out
Wednesday, November 20, 2024 at 7:30 PM EST

The city’s last affordable house is for sale. Heads roll and shrimp tails fly when a frantic, 12-hour bidding war erupts during what was supposed to be a routine open house. Agents turn on buyers, buyers turn on agents, and everything spirals into an uproarious dark comedy of desperation and anxiety.

This season’s largest cast brings everyday homebuyers to life as they grapple with extraordinary circumstances, skyrocketing housing costs, gentrification, and sabotage.

The Bidding War features a knock-out ensemble cast including Aurora Browne, Sergio Di Zio, Izad Etemadi, Peter Fernandes, Veronica Hortiguela, Amy Matysio, Gregory Prest, Fiona Reid, and Steven Sutcliffe.

Michael Ross-Albert (The Huns, Tough Jews) is a Toronto based playwright, screenwriter, independent producer, educator, and dramaturg. Paolo Santalucia (The Wrong Bashir, Prodigal, Orphans for the Czar, Casimir and Caroline) is a Dora-Award winning theatre artist, and the Associate Artistic Director of Crow’s Theatre.
