This production is brilliant!
Three actors play 68 roles on a glass stage with movie projections and you are transported from 1844 until 2008.
It was expertly directed by Sam Mendes. I don’t know how these actors do this three+ hour show eight times a week!
It starts with Henry Lehman arriving in the USA in 1844 and tells the story of his family. It is three acts. It is riveting and seems much shorter! Three actors play all the characters from babies to wives to traders.
It was a theatrical event that is award worthy.
See it as the play is well written the actors are incredible and the three hours feels like 90- minutes. I was very moved by this monumental show.
It is a must for every lover of plays. It is a must see!
Great theater is a gift. “LEHMAN TRILOGY” is a gift, get your tickets as soon as you are done reading my review.
The three actors are Simon Russell Beale, Adam Godley and Adrian Lester. What an amazing play. I am on a cloud. See it!
FYI: I was so moved by this production that I am announcing a special Broadway Showbiz theater excellence award to the entire cast and Sam Mendes for Direction. This is effective immediately.
