Broadway: How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying

A revival musical show that opened on March 27, 2011 with a big named cast. Starring Harry Potter! I kid, Daniel Radcliffe takes the lead in this musical alongside Rose Hemingway, Mary Faber, Tammy Blanchard, Christopher Hanke and John Larraquette - who won the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Musical this year. 

The musical is a comedy about executive dreams and of course, office romance. 'With the aid of a trust self-help book How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, wily window washer J. Pierrepont Finch (Radcliffe) enjoys a riotous rise up the corporate ladder. Can he get the promotion, the corner office and the girl, or will he learn balancing business and pleasure can be precarious - but hilarious and oh, so much fun?' (From the "About" page of the show). The musical was nominated for the Tony Award, 'Best Revival of a Musical' but lost to the other revival Anything Goes. However, it still is a must see show! How else are you going to witness Daniel Radcliffe sing and dance -  and be extremely comedic? It's "Great Fun for Everyone" and "Absolutely Timeless and Hilarious"! 

The cast of the show sings 'Brotherhood of Man' at the Tony Awards 2011
