Description
“You don’t want another Enron? Here’s your law: If a company can’t explain, in one sentence, what it does… it’s illegal”
Think Wolf of Wall Street. Think Margin Call. Think The Big Short.
Now think… theatre. And you’ve got Lucy Prebble’s Enron.
The story of Enron, the biggest bankruptcy filing in the history of the United States that shook Wall Street to its core. Regulators fooled, lawyers hoodwinked, profits faked and share-prices rising, falling and rising and falling again.
But this play is not all about numbers. It’s about the people behind the numbers, arguably more complex and cryptic than the intricate economics. Individual greed born from an atmosphere of market euphoria and corporate arrogance.
But how did the men branded as “the smartest guys in the room” become the financial world’s biggest examples of exactly what not to do?
“All humanity is here. There’s Greed, there’s Fear, Joy, Faith, Hope… And the greatest of these… is Money”
