The Lehman Trilogy: September 19 to October 12, 2025
In 1844, Hayum Lehmann arrives in New York from Bavaria to make his way in a new world.

More than a century later, the firm spectacularly collapses into bankruptcy, leaving unprecedented disaster in its wake. This sweeping generational saga questions how we define heroes and villains — and where we draw the line between them. Showcasing tour-de-force performances by three actors playing multiple characters, the real-life story of the Lehman brothers unfolds with surprising elegance and astonishing theatricality.
