SYNOPSIS – HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING
It’s the “Mad Men” Musical!! This classic satire of big business, winner of seven Tony Awards, bristles with humor, romance and song. Young window washer Finch, with the aid of a handbook, moves up the corporate ladder with a mixture of innocence and smarts. It’s just another day at the office in this heart-warming musical romp.
