Juicy stuff... the financial saga that shocked the world and foreshadowed the current recession comes to the stage in an epic dramatisation written by Lucy Prebble, directed by theatrical renaissance man Rupert Goold and starring Samuel West Jeffrey Skilling, the Enron CEO currently doing 24 years for fraud.

It will have to be pretty good to surpass the shocking 2005 documentary Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room. Goold is nothing if not ambitious and promises a blend of music, video and effects with live action to tell the story of a shocking collective con job by a company that became one of the biggest in the USA and a key Bush ally.

Enron tells a horrific, compelling story, and this play is exciting not only for its starry production team, but also for the chance to revisit the first car wreck of the naughty noughties.
