Concluding the VLT's 68th Season is the fizzy musical comedy How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying.
Big business means big laughs as J. Pierrepont Finch schemes and scams his way to the top in this bold and bawdy musical that celebrates the Great American Corporate Wayand and lampoons it at the same time.
"How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying has always held a special place in my heart," says director Scott Charles Francis. After an experience performing the show in high school as Bud Frump, Scott knew he was destined to one day direct this show. "What a joy it is to work on such a wonderfully written show - great songs, clever characters, and a top-notch script. Well over 50 volunteers have joined together to bring this project to fruition... So, sit back, relax, and we'll bring the world of How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying to life!"
