ENRON Transfers to the Royal Court

Following its critically-acclaimed run at the Chichester Festival Theatre, ENRON has transferred to the Royal Court Theatre in London. It is directed by Rupert Goold and stars Samuel West, Tim Pigott-Smith and Howard Charles.”The production at the Royal Court is sumptuous. Rupert Goold’s direction is minutely choreographed yet also has a compelling breadth of vision.” **** Henry Hitchings, The Evening Standard

“The pulse and vigour of play and production stem from their ability to make complex financial ideas manifest. Everything is made visually apprehensible … Samuel West is hugely impressive as the self-deluded Skilling. It is difficult to feel sympathy for such a man, whose deregulation policies did so much damage, but West reminds us of the global complicity in money worship.” ***** Michael Billington, The Guardian

The run has sold out, but the production will transfer to the Noel Coward Theatre in the West End in the New Year, before it opens on Broadway next April.

ENRON, by Lucy Prebble, is a Headlong Theatre production.
