CPCC Theatre Stages HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING, Now thru 2/22

By:

Central Piedmont Community College (CPCC) Theatre will bring Frank Loesser and Abe Burrows' "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," winner of the 1962 Tony Award for Best Musical, to the Halton Theater stage tonight, February 13 - 22.

In this musical production, power, sex, ambition and greed combine to create one of the most delightfully irreverent musicals of all time. Written by the authors of "Guys and Dolls," "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" follows the rise of J. Pierpont Finch as he bluffs his way up the corporate ladder from lowly window washer to high-powered executive at the World Wide Wicket Company.

The production is a delightful musical satire of corporate life and office politics, and is packed with memorable songs such as "I Believe in You," "Brotherhood of Man" and "Been a Long Day." Melding wit, comedy and romance together, "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" has rightfully earned its status among theatre-goers as a classic, not-to-be-missed musical treat.
