The National’s original production of Stefano Massini’s monumental three act play about the Lehman Banking dynasty, which retains Sam Mendes’ original direction and staging, has been afforded another West End outing. Opening this evening, with the cast which has recently been wowing audiences in San Francisco, the show’s capacity to impress through breadth of scope whilst never losing sight of intimate humanity, remains compelling.
