Madonna as Loren
Written by David Williamson

UP FOR GRABS

Madonna played Loren in ‘Up For Grabs’, an art dealer desperately trying to sell a Jackson Pollock painting for a ridiculous amount of money to several possible buyers. Loren finds herself in the most extreme and funny situations just to sell that painting, all because she made a ‘deal’ and her husband doesn’t agree.

 

  • Up For Grabs made its debut on May 13 but officially premiered on May 23, 2002
  • Matinees were originally scheduled but got cancelled as they conflicted with Madonna’s studio time for the recording of her upcoming album
  • Up For Grabs was written by David Williamson and debuted on stage previously in Australia in 2001
  • Besides Madonna the cast in London included Tom Irwin, Megan Dodds, Daniel Pino, Sian Thomas, Michael Lerner and Debora Weston
  • Madonna helped compose the soundtrack to Up For Grabs
