"The play takes you across three centuries, 1840s to 2008, tracking the journey of how the Lehman family and their little store evolved into a huge Wall Street investment bank and then, as we know in 2008, folded," says director Kim Strassburger. "The play asks us to question the decisions and the paths that they take towards achieving the American dream."

The cast features Jacob Caltrider as Mayer Lehman; Steven Lone as Emmanuel Lehman; and Bruce Turk as Henry Lehman.
