Last season’s sold-out hit returns.
After a record-breaking, sold-out run at Crow’s last season, Rogers v. Rogers returns for a limited run at Canadian Stage.
Telecom tycoon Ted Rogers built an empire by turning Canada’s airwaves into cash. Now his son Edward, long dismissed by his father, is fighting for control of the family business. Meanwhile, shrewd public servant Matthew Boswell is determined to derail Rogers’ multibillion-dollar takeover of Shaw Communications.
Inspired by one of the most dramatic boardroom showdowns in Canadian history, this riveting drama examines the price of pushing back, the unraveling bonds of kin, and the legacy that money can—and cannot—buy.
From award-winning playwright Michael Healey, writer of The Master Plan and The Drawer Boy, comes a story of outsized ambition, personal grudges, and corporate power. Rogers v. Rogers is Performed by acclaimed stage actor Tom Rooney, whose celebrated work includes Crow’s productions of Fifteen Dogs and Uncle Vanya.
Please note: This production will take place at Berkeley Street Theatre / Marilyn and Charles Baillie Theatre (Canadian Stage, 26 Berkeley St)
