Serious Money

'Serious Money' at Greenwich Theatre, dress rehearsal on Wed 3 June 2009, as part of the level 3 London Season 2

 

A vicious satire on the cocaine- fuelled greed of traders in London?s money markets. The play was a scandalous success when first performed at the Royal Court in 1987. Now as the crunch drives us into recession, the play is a prescient reminder of the folly of unregulated

speculation. Written in the verse style of a ribald City Comedy with rhyming couplets and obscene songs, this comedy at least allows us to laugh at the way we have allowed bust to follow boom.
