About The Lehman Trilogy

The National Theatre and Neal Street Productions’ The Lehman Trilogy makes a triumphant return to London following an acclaimed season in Los Angeles and a highly lauded run on Broadway, winning 5 Tony Awards® including Best Play. Directed by Academy Award®, Tony Award® and Golden Globe winner Sam Mendes, The Lehman Trilogy features a cast of three playing the Lehman brothers, their sons and grandsons, in an extraordinary feat of story-telling told in three parts on a single evening. Hailed by The New York Times as 'a genuinely epic production', The Lehman Trilogy is the story of a family and a company that changed the world.

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.
