A genuine theatrical masterwork — a revealing history lesson, which at its heart tells of a family driven by the need to succeed and overcome obstacles. The story begins in 1844 with the arrival in New York of a young immigrant Jew from Bavaria. Within three years, Henry (John Heffernan) is joined at his ‘fabric and suits’ store in Alabama by his two brothers Mayer (Aaron Krohn) and Emanuel (Howard W. Overshown). Over decades they develop their middlemen operation into a formidable brokerage, which with each generation diversifies and reinforces its domination over corporate America.Read more →

A classic. Deep suspenseful drama interwoven with moments of absurdity & slapstick. Trio, led by Nigel Lindsay, superb in every role played. Apex is definitely Bobby doing the ‘twist’. The hype is justified on this oneRead more →

The play paints a vivid picture of the origins of our financial system from its roots in (Alabama😉) the past, through to the present.
The storytelling is magnificent with a seamless blend of humour, drama and tragedy. The actors give fantastic performances switching seamlessly between characters and accents as they move from one era to the next.
Overall, immensely engaging, enjoyable and thought provoking. #mustseeRead more →

A brilliant contemporary play that tells a story of a very interesting family that changed American economic system.
It’s unusual to see only three actors playing dozens of characters but they do it so well you forget that they are the same person. The play is fairly long but it never gets boring, because it’s like watching a super good Oscar worthy film.
Some of the scenes took my breath out and I’m honestly still processing everything that I’ve seen. Just sending a huge thank you to everyone who is in charge of producing this play.Read more →
