Serious Money (08-19 September)

London, 1987. The Big Bang has blown the doors off the City- deregulation, obscene money, and amoral excess. In the maelstrom we find Scilla Todd: trader, sister, amateur detective, hell-bent on finding out who killed her brother. It's likely it was something to do with the American takeover of the company Albion... Caryl Churchill's 1000mph satire in rhyming couplets collides with clowning, commedia dell'arte and over 40 characters in a wild, wheeling production from Mad Spirit Productions.

Greed. Lies. Champagne. Playing in an office near you.


'From today, we're going for the gold.
Put your family life and your sex life on hold.
A deal like this, at the start you gently woo it.
There comes a time when you get in there and screw it.
So you get the stock. And I don't care how you do it.'
