“A dazzling piece of storytelling” Time Out
“A masterwork…A must see.” The Telegraph
“You dare not miss it” New York Post
On a cold September morning in 1844, Heyam, a young man from Bavaria stands on a New York dockside dreaming of a new life in the new world. He is soon joined by Mendel and Mayer, and the Lehman brothers’ journey begins.
The growth of global capitalism exposes the fault lines of the American dream. The Lehman brothers rise from shopkeepers to bankers, from obscurity to prominence, navigating the Civil War, the Great Depression, and generations of ethical dilemmas.
It is an epic journey, an epic play, and a theatrical tour de force.
The Lehman Trilogy runs April 23 – May 19 at the Belfry Theatre with Pay What You Can tickets available for all performances.
