Junk
Arena Stage 1101 6th St. SW, District of Columbia 20024
As the brilliant and calculating Robert Merkin prepares a hostile takeover of a family-owned manufacturing company, he is not concerned about crossing the line to get what he wants in the name of “saving America.” Inspired by the volatile and cut-throat financial world and the junk bond giants of the 1980s, Junk is an enticing look at the money makers, their hubris and those who tried to hold them accountable.
