You dare not to miss it! (New York Review). The Lehman Trilogy returns to London in January 2023.
The National Theatre and Neal Street Productionsโ The Lehman Trilogy makes a triumphant return to Londonโs West End, following an acclaimed season in Los Angeles and a highly lauded run on Broadway, winning 5 Tony Awardsยฎย including Best Play.
On a cold September morning in 1844, a young man from Bavaria stands on a New York dockside dreaming of a new life in the new world. He is joined by his two brothers, and an American epic begins. 163 years later later, the firm they establish โ Lehman Brothers โ spectacularly collapses into bankruptcy, triggering the largest financial crisis in history.
Directed by Academy Awardยฎ, Tony Awardยฎ and Golden Globe winner Sam Mendes (1917, Skyfall, Empire of Light), the play features a cast of three playing the Lehman brothers, their sons, and grandsons, in an extraordinary feat of storytelling told in three parts on a single evening. The decades unfold within the cinematic sweep of the โgeniusโ (The Times), Tony Awardยฎย -winning set by Es Devlin (The Crucible, London 2012 Olympics Closing Ceremony).
Hailed by The New York Times as a โgenuinely epic productionโ, The Lehman Trilogy is the story of a family and a company that changed the world.
Strictly limited engagement begins 24 January 2023 at the Gillian Lynne Theatre.
