Our 2023 hit returns after a critically-acclaimed sold-out run last season! THE MASTER PLAN is the biting satire about the stunning failure to build a smart city in Toronto. Adapted from award-winning writer and The Globe and Mail journalist Josh O’Kane’s best-selling book Sideways: The City Google Couldn’t Buy, the play takes us behind closed doors and reveals the corporate drama, epic personalities, and iconic Canadian figures involved in the messy affair between Sidewalk Labs and Waterfront Toronto. In 2017, when the public agency Waterfront Toronto decided to put up a parcel of land for development. Sidewalk Labs, a subsidiary of Google’s Alphabet Inc., swept in with a proposal to create the city of the future. The project quickly fell apart from uneasy partnerships, rigid local politics, and an overwhelmingly negative public response. THE MASTER PLAN exposes the hubris of big tech, the feebleness of government, and the dangers of public consultation with sharp wit and insightful commentary. THE MASTER PLAN features original cast members Christopher Allen (Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo) as Cam Malagaam, Ben Carlson (The Lehman Trilogy) as Will Fleissig, Phillipa Domville (The Penelopiad) as Meg Davis, Mike Shara (Hamlet-911) as Dan Doctoroff, and the playwright Micheal Healey as Tree. Joining the cast is Rose Napoli (Lo (or Dear Mr. Wells)) as Kristina Verner.  CRITICS’ PICKThe Globe and Mail “The play every Torontonian has to see.
