Event Description:
Davis Musical Theatre Company presents the clever lampoon of 1960’s corporate life, "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", every weekend February 24, 2017 through March 19, 2017, at the Jean Henderson Performing Arts Center (607 Pena Drive #10) in Davis. A tune-filled comic gem that took Broadway by storm, winning both the Tony Award for Best Musical and a Pulitzer Prize, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying boasts an exhilarating score by Frank Loesser, including "I Believe in You," "Coffee Break," "Brotherhood of Man" and "The Company Way." A satire of big business and all it holds sacred, "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" follows the rise of J. Pierrepont Finch, who uses a how-to handbook 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 coworkers, caffeine addiction and, of course, true love. As the show begins, J. Pierrepont Finch, a young window washer, is pouring over a manual for transforming himself into a tycoon. He soon bluffs his way into a job in the mail room at World Wide Wicket Company, where he catches the eye of Secretary Rosemary Pilkington. With a mixture of innocence and smarts, our hero continues to climb the ladder of success, impressing boss J.B. Biggley while overcoming opposition from Biggley’s lazy nephew, Bud Frump. Steve Isaacson will direct, with Adriel Cruz (musical direction) and Ron Cisneros (choreography). Featured performers include Daniel Silva as "J. Pierrepont Finch," Jori Gonzales as “Rosemary Pilkington,” Sarah Kraemer as “Hedy LaRue”, Scott Minor as “JB Biggley and Chris Colbourn as "Bud Frump.” "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" plays on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m., February 24 through March 19. All performances are at the Jean Henderson Performing Arts Center, 607 Pena Drive in East Davis. Tickets are $18 General; $16 Students/Seniors 55 & over; and $14 each for groups 10 or more (there is a $2 facility fee per ticket on a purchase, cash, charge, phone, Internet or in person). They can be purchased online at dmtc.org, or by calling (530) 756-3682.
