Lucy Prebble's play 'Enron' continues to become a bigger and bigger hit. Its run at the Noel Coward Theatre has now been extended by 14 weeks and will continue to 14th August 2010. If you haven't already bought theatre tickets for this show, take the opportunity now before it sells out. From 9th May, a new cast will take over. The play will also tour the UK later this year. Meanwhile a Broadway production will open in April.
It is wonderful to see a new play, unafraid to take on potentially difficult subject matter and directed in a very imaginative way by Rupert Goold, being such a huge success. The play tells the true story of the American company Enron, which became the biggest corporate failure in history when it went bankrupt.
The company was riddled with fraudulent practices which had been allowed to happen by the legal advisers and accountants who were paid millions of dollars a year. In fact as a virtually direct result of Enron's collapse, the once largest accountancy firm in the world, Arthur Andersen has now disappeared.
The subject matter may not seem the obvious basis for what has become one of the hottest theatre tickets in the
West End. However, the play uses wonderfully theatrical images to explain what went wrong. It is also a wonderful study of the executives who were central to what happened.
Samuel West is outstanding as Jeffrey Skilling, the number two man at Enron who ultimately took the blame (and the prison sentence) for what happened. He has already been nominated for a number of awards and it will be a very difficult task for the actor who takes on this role. Tim Pigott-Smith as the company's father figure Ken Lay offers superb support. At Concierge Desk we offer cheap London theatre tickets.
