‘The financial world won’t be the same again.
Because the traders are coming down the fast lane.’ 

Caryl Churchill’s ferocious satire on the excesses and venality of the City of London. First staged at the Royal Court in 1987, Serious Money explores the development of a new form of moneymaking, alongside changing cultural ideologies that have come to dominate the world we live in now.

Winner of the Olivier Award for Best Play, Serious Money is one of the great plays about greed, moneymaking and the impact it has on people.

The amateur production of SERIOUS MONEY is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. concordtheatricals.co.uk

Duration: 2 hours and 25 minutes (including a 15-minute interval)

This play features themes of death and drug use, offensive language and strobe lighting.
