BroadwayWorld Presents The 2011 Tony Awards Nominees:
'Best Revival of a Musical'


Anything Goes
Stephen Sondheim Theatre. First Preview: 03/10/2011, Opened: 04/07/2011, Currently Running.

ALL ABOARD for this saucy and splendid new production of Cole Porter's musical romp across the Atlantic, starring Tony Award® winner Sutton Foster! When the S.S. American heads out to sea, etiquette and convention head out the portholes as two unlikely pairs set off on the course to true love... proving that sometimes destiny needs a little help from a crew of singing sailors, an exotic disguise and some good old-fashioned blackmail. Peppering this hilariously bumpy ride are some of musical theater's most memorable standards, including “I Get a Kick out of You,” “You're the Top,“ “It's De-lovely,” and of course, “Anything Goes.”

How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying
Al Hirschfeld Theatre. First Preview: 02/26/2011, Opened: 03/27/2011, Currently Running.

Following the advice of a book entitled "How to Succeed in Business" a young window-cleaner, J. Pierrepont Finch, begins a meteoric rise from the mail-room to Vice President of Advertising at the World-Wide Wicket Company. Finch’s unorthodox and morally-questionable business practices jeopardize not only his career but also his romance with secretary Rosemary Pilkington. With a beloved score by Frank Loesser, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is packed with hit standards such as “I Believe in You,” “Happy to Keep His Dinner Warm,” “The Company Way,” “Been a Long Day,” “Rosemary,” and “Brotherhood of Man.”
