MONEY

An epic new play, in development, premiering 2026-27

MONEY is a new Canadian play in 3 Acts, spanning 3 generations of stories, with a cast of 8 of our country’s top theatre stars, including writer/director/performer Rick Miller.

MONEY aims to move the needle on one of the most important conversations of our time: how do we preserve democracy, and live together more equitably, peacefully, and sustainably? A big question that stirs up big emotions, which is why we need storytellers to get to the heart of it.
