Presents:
How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying

'How To Succeed...' is an excellent musical with wit, intelligence and a fabulous Frank (Guys And Dolls) Loesser score.  It is one of the handful of musicals to win the Pulitzer Prize.  Matthew Broderick won another Tony when he starred in the 1990s revival.  Of course, he played the part made famous in the original production by Robert Morse

How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is a story about the triumph of the common man. The hero is a window washer named J. Pierrepont Finch. After Finch happens upon a book entitled 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,' he decides to begin his rise up the corporate ladder. Following the instructions of the book, Finch lands a job in the mailroom at the World Wide Wicket Company. With the help of his handy book, Finch quickly gains promotions and outsmarts his rival, Frump - who also happens to be the boss' nephew. Finch then gains the love of Rosemary, a secretary at the company. In the end, however, after Finch's ad campaign goes awry, the book can no longer help him. He is forced to rely on his own wits and performs so admirably that he is promoted to Chairman of the Board. Songs include: Brotherhood of Man, The Company Way, A Secretary is Not a Toy, and I Believe in You.

The Director is Gordon M. Levine, the Musical Director will be Jerry Berger, and the Choreographer will be Nancy Andrade.
