THE TONY AWARD®-WINNING PLAY IS BACK IN THE WEST END.
Academy Award®, Golden Globe, and Tony Award® winner Sam Mendes directs the landmark National Theatre and Neal Street production of The Lehman Trilogy that returns to London at the Gillian Lynne Theatre this autumn for a strictly limited season.
Described as 'a genuinely epic production' by the New York Times, The Lehman Trilogy is a powerful story of a family that spans generations and the creation, rise, and ultimate demise of a company that shook the financial world.
Following a critically acclaimed season in San Francisco, Aaron Krohn, John Heffernan, and Howard W. Overshown bring their 'virtuosic performances' (The Mercury News) to London, to play the Lehman brothers, their sons, and grandsons in a thrilling 'tour de force performance.
A young Bavarian man stands on a New York dockside with big dreams of a new life in the new world on a cold September morning in 1844. Accompanied by his two brothers, a new American epic begins. 163 years later, the company they established - Lehman Brothers - collapses spectacularly into bankruptcy providing the spark to trigger the largest financial crisis in history.
Limited season at the Gillian Lynne Theatre from September, 24th 2024.
