Arts at Carleton

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. 

This five-time Olivier Award nominated play is directed by Sam Mendes and stars Simon Russell Beale, Adam Godley and Ben Miles.
