All money corrupts, and serious money corrupts absolutely.
When a top City banker has to solve a murder, legal and moral boundaries alike slowly dissolve with each step – especially for those who can pay the right price for it. As whimsical as it is biting, Caryl Churchill’s Serious Money presents an ever-whirling carousel of eclectic characters that propels its audience through the vice-riddled landscape of 1980s London financial market, and brings them face to face with unscrupulous big-shots and duplicitous opportunists in a provocative satire that is daringly playful and playfully daring as it penetrates through the fierce and ruthless world of unrestrained capitalism.
