The Lehman Trilogy

Guthrie Theater

Hailed as “a genuinely epic production” by The New York Times, The Lehman Trilogy follows three German-Jewish immigrant brothers, and their descendants, as they navigate fire, flood, war, and panic to build a financial behemoth that changed America.

In 1847, the Lehman brothers open a modest clothing shop in Alabama. But they have big dreams. They evolve as new opportunities arise. They capitalize on railroads, oil booms, personal computers, and, eventually, capital itself. They become so intertwined with the U.S. government, and in the daily lives of millions of stakeholders, that some begin to believe that Lehman Brothers, the institution, is too big to fail.

Denver Center for the Performing Arts

The Tony Award®-winning Best Play makes a triumphant return to London, following an acclaimed season in Los Angeles and a highly lauded run on Broadway.

Michael Balogun (Death of England: Delroy; Macbeth), Hadley Fraser (The Antipodes, Coriolanus) and Nigel Lindsay (The Pillowman; A Small Family Business) play the Lehman Brothers, their sons and grandsons in an extraordinary feat of storytelling told in three parts on a single evening.
