"For Sale" by Aria Evans cheekily turns history on its side, placing the true ownership of the land where Colborne Lodge sits within the premise of a real estate open house, and bidding war among audience members. Powerful and playful, For Sale sheds new light on issues of reconciliation and the concept of “ownership”, the housing market as well as the complexities of colonial (museum) cultures and how we understand and pass down histories.

Choreographer / dance artist Aria Evans has conceived the piece and leads the team of performers and collaborators Sam Brown, Liz Der, Aria Evans, Kiah Francis, Sofi Gudino, Nicole Leveck and Jarrett Siddall, as well as Sue Balint, Charissa Wilcox, Helin Gungoren, Aj Morra. With funding from the Canada Council for the Arts.

Limited to 10 audience members per show.

Free. Registration required.

"For Sale" is part of the Awakenings Project, presented by The City of Toronto History Museums and Soulpepper.
