SEEKING

Equity actors for the role of Mayer Lehman in THE LEHMAN TRILOGY.

SYNOPSIS

Winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Play, The Lehman Trilogy is a riveting tour-de-force that is sure to captivate the imagination. In 1844, a young man from Germany stands on a New York dockside dreaming of a new life in the new world. He is joined by his two brothers, and an American epic begins. Over the next 163 years, the Lehmans transformed a small storefront into an unstoppable investment superpower – until a collapse that pushed the global economy to the brink of destruction. With three extraordinary actors portraying over 50 characters, this universally acclaimed play tests the bounds of the American dream and the limits of epic theatricality with a one-of-a-kind event you won’t want to miss!

[MAYER LEHMAN] Man in his 50s. Ethnically Jewish. One of the three founding brothers of the investment bank Lehman Brothers. A good mover with much endurance.
