The Lehman Trilogy at the Huntington

Join the BOLLI Excursion to the Huntington Theatre on Saturday, June 24 at 1 pm for The Lehman Trilogy, the epic and timely story of family, ambition, and risk, sprawling 163 years of history and shining a calculating spotlight on the spectacular rise and fall of Lehman Brothers, a family and a company that changed the world.  Tickets for BOLLI members are only $20 for a seat in the orchestra.

The production that originated in London won the Tony in 2022 for the Best Play when it was produced on Broadway.

Performed entirely by three actors over nearly 3 hours (2 intermissions), the story follows the original three Lehman brothers, then their sons and grandsons, as they journey from rags to riches to ruin. In 1840s Alabama, a Bavarian immigrant dreams of a better life for his family. By the early 2000s, his descendants trigger unprecedented financial disaster. In a marvel of storytelling, this extraordinary piece of theatre is both an intimate saga about a family and a monumental exposé of unbridled capitalism.

The performance will be followed by an early dinner for members at Lucie, the new restaurant at the Colonnade Hotel (replacing Brasserie Jo) a short walk down Huntington Avenue from the Theatre.  Here is a link to the current dinner menu https://d207hr1s2gcif8.cloudfront.net/luciebackbay.com-3529707097/cms/pressroom/lucie_dinner.pdf .  Diners will be seated together to socialize and will be able to order off the menu.  In order to reserve the tables, we will request a commitment for dinner from ticket purchasers several weeks before the performance.
