I found a cast list and program online from Milan. There were 12 actors, including 2 women.

Interestingly, the Italian title is "Lehman Trilogy." No "The," but Trilogy is the English word, not the Italian word, "Trilogia."

The program has a 2-page explanation of American history, since Italians may not know the details. Apparently, some English and Yiddish words were thrown in, since there is also a glossary. One of the sections of the history is about Martin Luther King, who is also in the glossary. I don't remember him being mentioned in the play, but it may have been part that was edited out.

mLK is quoted in the third act. I think it was more used to show time lapse than actual ah-ha moment. Because I thought—oh we are now in late 60s or 70s
