LABYRINTH
Labyrinth is a surreal financial thriller that explores the fall out of one of the most catastrophic economic crises of modern history. Opening in New York in the late 1970s, the play follows John Anderson, barely out of college, as he jets across the globe selling loans to Latin American countries eager to borrow...and there are many. When the banks go into meltdown, the world economy is brought to the brink, and John struggles to hold together his fracturing sanity.
Labyrinth received its world premiere at the Hampstead Theatre, London, 2016, in a production directed by Anna Ledwich.
"The most compelling theatrical study of high finance since Lucy Prebble’s Enron ... This is invigorating, informative stuff." ★★★★

This fizzing play by the ultra-talented Beth Steel is ... full of fire-in-the-blood swagger. ★★★★
- The Times
"Labyrinth is Latin America's wildly entertaining answer to Wall Street ... richly researched, it’s insistently useful and almost indecently entertaining." ★★★★
