Summary

Due to the outbreak of covid-19 all performances were suspended. ENRON was reimagined as a virtual production.

In 2001, energy trading company Enron became the subject of a massive fraud and corruption scandal, with its chief operating officer, Jeffrey Skilling, at the centre of the $63 billion collapse.

Lucy Prebble’s 2009 play is a modern tragedy about the quest for power of big companies around the world, and the Macbeth-like betrayals as powerful men at the top of the food chain drag each other down during their kingdom's demise.

Enron is a perfect example of how to turn a story about business into a theatrical spectacle to match the company's spectacular collapse.
