One of the most infamous scandals in financial history is transformed into a theatrical epic event. Mixing classical tragedy with savage comedy, the play follows a group of flawed men and women in a narrative of greed and loss that explores the tumultuous 1990s and casts new light on the financial turmoil in which the world now finds itself. Inspired by real-life events and using music, movement, projections, pop culture and pure theatricality, Enron captures the economic free-for-all that precipitated the collapse of the energy giant in the wake of the greatest white-collar crime in American history. "There is superb clarity in Prebble's story-telling as well as high drama...that brings the mysterious world of high finance to vivid, comprehensible life." - The Daily Telegraph. A Springfield area premiere. This production contains adult language and situations. - -
