The Watermark/The Lehman Trilogy/250719

The Lehman Trilogy
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, and triggers the largest financial crisis in history. The play is the story of a family and a company that changed the world, told in three parts on a single evening.
