Looking Forward to The Lehman Trilogy

I am so looking forward to watching The Lehman Trilogy tomorrow.

Here is the Guardian review by Michael Billington which I am going to study for a while tonight to be ready for the show tomorrow.

I noticed that it is 3 acts, 3 hours and 30 minutes -- a long play but then there is 140 years of capitalist enterprize to cover.

From The LondonTheatre.com I read "The accents change from German to New York as the immigrant brothers are overtaken by a new generation; the sign of the Lehman Brothers shop constantly evolves, each one marked in pen like a memory on the glass walls of the set; the actors use cardboard file boxes to build platforms and staircases as the giant set revolves and the years pass."

Fun stuff.
