Photo Flash: Meet the Cast of 'HOW TO SUCCEED' at Rivertown Theaters

Co-artistic director Gary Rucker will direct seven-time Tony Awards winner "How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" on the Main Stage at Rivertown Theaters for the Performing Arts opening Friday, May 6.

Big business means big laughs in the delightfully clever lampoon of life on the corporate ladder. A tune-filled comic gem that took Broadway by storm, boasts an exhilarating score by Frank Loesser including I Believe In You, Brotherhood of Man, and The Company Way. A satire of big business in the 1960's, How To Succeed follows the rise of J. Pierrepont Finch, who relies on a "How To" book to climb the corporate ladder from lowly window washer to high-powered executive. He tackles such familiar, but potent dangers as the aggressively compliant "company man", the office party, back-stabbing co-workers, caffeine addiction and, of course, true love. Power, ambition, greed... it's just another day at the office, Broadway-style! Winner of both the Tony and Pulitzer Prize for its status as a classic, not-to-be-missed musical treat.
