Serious Money by Caryl Churchill
Perhaps Caryl Churchill's most notorious play, Serious Money is a satirical study of the effects of the Big Bang, which has prompted city financiers to applaud and decry its presentation of their lives. This edition contains an introduction, commentary and questions for study.
A breathless, exhilarating crash course in the low morality of high finance Independent 'The play is a fine example of the stage's special ability to respond to the big, immediate stories of our day far more forcefully than journalism and much faster than the cinema' Georgina Brown, Mail on Sunday, 17.5.09 'Caryl Churchill's brutally brilliant, savagely funny and appallingly realistic play (1987) about the bankers and dealers and the wheeler-dealers, the publicists and the media vultures who flourished in and around the banks kindly deregulated by Mrs Thatcher' John Peter, Sunday Times, 17.5.09
