⭐ HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING REVIVAL ANNOUNCED FOR SOUTHWARK PLAYHOUSE ⭐
A brand new revival of the musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying has been announced for Southwark Playhouse.
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is a comic gem that took Broadway by storm in 1961, winning both the Tony Award for Best Musical and a Pulitzer Prize. It was revived twice on Broadway in acclaimed productions starring Matthew Broderick and Daniel Radcliffe.
A satire of big business and all it holds sacred, it follows the rise of J. Pierrepont Finch, who uses a little handbook called How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying to climb the corporate ladder from lowly window washer to high-powered executive, tackling such familiar but potent dangers as the aggressively compliant “company man”, the office party, backstabbing co-workers, caffeine addiction and, of course, true love, conformity, the corporate ladder and the American dream.
This brand new production is brought to you by the team behind last year’s Anyone Can Whistle and promises to be a bold and inventive new staging for a modern day audience, with all the charm of the original.
Featuring Michelle Visage (RuPaul’s Drag Race) as the voice of The Book.
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying will be directed by Georgie Rankcom (they/them), featuring choreographer Alexzandra Sarmiento (she/her), musical director Natalie Pound (she/her), set & costume designer Sophia Pardon (she/her), lighting designer Lucía Sánchez Roldán (she/her), sound designer Jake Johnson (he/him), orchestrator Stuart Morley (he/him), stage manager Waverley Moran (she/they), production manager Misha Mah (they/them), casting director Peter Noden (he/him) and producer/general manager Jodee Conrad (she/her).
Originally presented by Cy Feuer and Ernest H. Martin in association with Frank Productions.
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying will play Southwark Playhouse Borough, running from 12th May – 17th June 2023, with tickets on sale now.
