The Lehman Trilogy to Transfer to Broadway

Lehman Trilogy in Rehearsal c. Mark Douet

Following sold-out runs at the National Theatre, in the West End and at the Park Avenue Armory, totalling more than 200 performances, it is announced today that the National Theatre and Neal Street Productions’ critically acclaimed The Lehman Trilogy will return to New York when it transfers to Broadway for a strictly limited engagement in spring 2020. The Lehman Trilogy previews at the Nederlander Theatre from 7 March, with an opening night on 26 March 2020.

The story of a family and a company that changed the world, told in three parts on a single evening, The Lehman Trilogy is by Stefano Massini, adapted by Olivier Award-nominated Ben Power and directed by multiple Olivier Award, Tony Award and Oscar winner Sam Mendes (The Ferryman, Skyfall).

Simon Russell Beale, Adam Godley and Ben Miles will reprise their acclaimed roles on Broadway as the Lehman brothers, and a cast of characters including their sons and grandsons, in an extraordinary feat of storytelling which the New York Times called ‘three of the most virtuosic performances you’re ever likely to see.’

       

The Lehman Trilogy is produced on Broadway by the National Theatre, Neal Street Productions and Scott Rudin/Barry Diller/David Geffen. Tickets will go on sale to the general public from Saturday 14 September.

The Lehman Trilogy’s West End run ended on Saturday 31 August after a triumphant 16-weeks which saw audiences totalling more than 132,000 and sold-out performances at the Piccadilly Theatre.

First Look: The Return of The Lehman Trilogy to Gillian Lynne Theatre

The Lehman Trilogy weaves through nearly two centuries of Lehman lineage. 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 production returns to New York after its debut at the Park Avenue Armory in March 2019, where it garnered huge critical acclaim. The New York Times called it a ‘magnificent play, a genuinely epic production out of London, directed with surging sweep and fine-tooled precision by Sam Mendes…with a design team that understands the value of simplicity in doing justice to complex matters.’
