One Year Ago After Hell Froze Over We Opened The Lehman Trilogy
One year ago tonight we opened The Lehman Trilogy at Playhouse on the Square in Memphis. Openings come. Openings, and shows, go. This one has stuck with those of us who lived, worked, sweat, froze, caught COVID, and finally got the show in front of an audience. You can watch the trailer below.

My undying love and gratitude to the three gentlemen who played the Lehman brothers (and everyone else) in the show, Michael Gravois, Kevar Maffitt, and John Maness (pictured left to right below.)
Along the way they became my brothers as well. It was one of those shows that creates a bond that will never break, regardless of the adventures we each and all pursue in the future. Those are the rare shows. They are the rare talents I got to work and play with and always cherish.
Onwards.

Well this is exciting news. Our production of The Lehman Trilogy at Playhouse on the Square in Memphis was nominated in seven categories for The Ostrander Awards. As always any recognition is more than appreciated, but when you have a special production with a special team it is even more special.
Nominated from our team include:
Iza Bateman for Props
J. David Galloway for Scenic Design
Rachel Lauren for Lighting Design
Joshua Crawford for Sound Design
Myself for Direction
Myself and our Stage Manager Emma White for Production
And in a terrific nod to the three amazing actors who carried the load, John Maness, Michael Gravois and Kevar Maffitt were nominated not as an ensemble but together as one Leading Actor in a play. That may not make much sense if you don’t know the show, but these three amazing talents literally became inseparable as one in creating the hundreds of characters that fill this challenging piece of theatre. I can’t think of a finer way to honor the incredible performances they gave and the amazing work it took to get there.
Kudos to all involved as well as all of the other nominees. Thanks to the Ostrander folks for the recognition and thanks to the great folks at Playhouse on the Square for the opportunity for us to tell this amazing story. We’ll find out if we won anything on August 26th.

Almost 24 hours away from starting rehearsals for The Lehman Trilogy. Crazy big show. Crazy big anxiety. And I have no idea what’s going to come out of my mouth.
But that’s not unusual.

The Lehman Trilogy directed by Sam Mendes sits very well on the Gillian Lynne Theatre stage: Es Devlin’s set looks fantastic and the new cast are fabulous. Ben Powers’ adaptation seems more powerful than ever. Here’s my YouTube review https://youtu.be/YF66Rvt72qY and the written version https://theatre.reviews/review/lehman-trilogy/ #thelehmantrilogy #sammendes #theatre #review #esdevlin
