The Day That Lehman Died - written by Matthew Solon

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0043kcq

Recorded in New York with the assistance of WNYC Radio

First broadcast - BBC World Service, World Drama, 5 September 2009

A drama charting the collapse of one of
the oldest and largest investment banks in the world,
which sparked the beginnings of the global recession.

On 15 September 2008, Lehman Brothers filed for the largest bankruptcy in US history.
It sent the already
unstable markets into an uncontrollable tailspin.
How did the 'big beasts' of Wall Street make this critical
decision?
They held in their hands the future, not just of a bank, but the stability of the global financial
system.

The Day That Lehman Died (BBC
World Service)

This radio docudrama about the financial giant’s collapse opens with a euphoric,
in-house meeting/pep rally at which Lehman Brothers executives boast of their enormous profits and presumed
invincibility. The program would almost be funny if we didn’t know Lehman’s collapse came close to
wrecking the global banking system. Actually, it’s still funny at times because the ironies are unavoidable. But
The Day That Lehman Died is also intensely dramatic and vividly instructional, updating the approach of the classic You
Are There radio broadcasts of the late 1940s. Writer Matthew Solon drew his script from
hundreds of hours of interviews with bankers, lawyers and U.S. government officials who were involved in Lehman’s
last gasp the weekend of September 13, 2008. He places us behind closed doors, as Lehman employees in New York realize
what a house of cards they’ve built and as the feds decide to allow the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history to
commence. For putting a complex, globally significant story into gripping dramatic form, The Day That Lehman Died
receives a Peabody Award.

The Day That Lehman Died
by Matthew Solon
 
This contemporary morality-play showed how a combination of arrogance and self-interest led
to the collapse of the merchant bank Lehman Brothers. Rather than adjusting themselves to straitened financial
circumstances, traders continued to speculate wildly - as result, the bank overheated and went bust. Had anyone paused
to reflect on the consequences of their actions, then perhaps the debacle could have been avoided. But such
considerations are unimportant in the get-rich-quick world of high finance. Caryl Churchill's Serious Money (1987)
satirized the yuppies, who openly paraded their wealth both inside and outside the workplace. The Day That Lehman Died
showed what can happen in an unregulated stock market where everyone strives to make a financial killing.
 
Solon created a male-dominated world, whose members jostled for promotion and pecuniary rewards. No one remained
content with their lot; this was considered soft - and hence unmanly. This world-view also meant that no one thought
about the consequences of their actions; it was just 'bad luck' that they were ruined financially. More damagingly, the
traders complacently assumed that the American government would bail them out - after all, no politician would want to
see such a long-established institution go to the wall. As things turned out, this is precisely what did happen, proving
beyond doubt the wisdom of thinking before leaping.
 
This cautionary tale of boom and bust was performed by a
cast led by John Shea and directed by John Dryden.
