The Auction

by Francesca Allegra, March 2014

Love is for sale. As are the dodo bird, the empire state, Poughkeepsie, the brontosaurus, chivalry, Lady Gaga, and Love's daughter, Death. Fate hosts the auction for an unsuspecting audience of bidders. Produced as a part of Vertigo Productions and The Wirtz Center's Ten Minute Play Festival, The Auction's massive conceptual scope presented an opportunity to find and elevate the smallest human moments.
