I loved Ferryman. Figured I love another work involving Sam Mendes. First time I've seen these actors who were great. Loved Adam's interpretation of the multiple bride candidates and the way Simon and Adrian presented the female and child roles. Hysterical.

+1 here to grab a plane ticket to NYC! I'll admit I didn't know much about Adrian Lester before but after watching Lehman Trilogy I read up about him and didn't realize this is his Broadway debut!!! I thought all 3 actors were standouts all in their own way. I've always enjoyed and been a fan of Simon Russell Beale and think he can easily do a one-man show with all his impersonations/facial expressions. Same for Adam Godley. Adrian Lester too! 

I'll definitely be watching this play again. When I went, it started at around 7:07pm and I left at around 10:25pm. 

My take- saw it Saturday matinee- third row center- amazing view- third row is great- high stage so rows 1 and 2 are too close- my reaction is this---amazing production- the actors are incredible and all first-rate- the story is interesting and very engrossing- however, this is not a character study or a play with much emotional heft. Very little character development- almost like watching a great history lecture on the history of the financial markets and the effect of the Lehman Brothers on it. I give it an A minus- only because I like to leave the theater with some sense of emotional reaction- Moulin Rouge- a very different theatrical experience- I left with a lump in my throat- I did love the story for MR.  However, I loved the theatrics in Lehman Trilogy- and I do highly recommend it. And, I am very glad I saw it.

Does anyone know where the lottery seats have been located recently?

I dont know the workings of the TDF wizardry, but last night's show was max 2/3 full in the mezzanine. Entire rows of the rear side mezz were empty.
