THE LEHMAN TRILOGY, winner of five 2022 Tony Awards including Best Play, is set to have its Australian premiere in Sydney in February 2024. This critically acclaimed production tells the story of a family and a company that changed the world, directed by Sam Mendes.

Based on the memoir of the same name, The Little Big Things recounts the story of Henry Fraser's life-changing accident on holiday in Portugal, and how he subsequently came to embrace the person he became. The book has been adapted for the stage by Joe White, with music by Nick Butcher and lyrics by Butcher and Tom Ling; Luke Sheppard directs, and the creative team also worked closely with the Fraser family to aid in its development.
