About The Lehman Trilogy

THE TONY AWARD®-WINNING BEST PLAY RETURNS TO LONDON

The landmark National Theatre and Neal Street production of The Lehman Trilogy, directed by Academy Award®, Tony Award®, and Golden Globe winner Sam Mendes, returns to the Gillian Lynne Theatre for a strictly limited encore season this autumn. Hailed by The New York Times as 'a genuinely epic production', The Lehman Trilogy is a sweeping story of a family spanning generations and a company that changed the world.

John Heffernan, Aaron Krohn and Howard W. Overshown bring their ‘virtuosic performances’(The Mercury News) to London, following a critically acclaimed run in San Francisco, playing the Lehman brothers, their sons and grandsons in this thrilling ‘tour de force of acting talent.’(KQED Radio)

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, the firm they establish - Lehman Brothers - spectacularly collapses into bankruptcy, triggering the largest financial crisis in history.

Exquisite, Great writing, Absorbing

See it if you want to see an epic play, tracing the history of a banking family in the US- very clever and witty throughout.

Don’t see it if you can't sit still for 3.5 hours- though with the multiple roles each actor plays and a complex story, you won't have time to be bored.

Great staging, Ambitious, Entertaining, Clever, Absorbing

See it if you want a unique show, an engaging story, and fantastic acting.

Don’t see it if you're going to be put off by the running time (3h 20m) or by having a cast of 3 take on multiple roles throughout the show.
