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. Weaving together nearly two centuries of family history this epic theatrical event charts the humble beginnings outrageous successes and devastating failure of the financial institution that would ultimately bring the global economy to its knees./ The Lehman Trilogyis the quintessential story of western capitalism rendered through the lens of a single immigrant family. Note: Nick Powell's original music from the Broadway and West End productions (which is available for streaming on music platforms) is not approved or licensed by Concord Theatricals for use in performance.
