Timely and timeless, Front Row Centre Players have pulled out the power suits and are ready to get down to business. How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying satirizes the big business culture of the 1960s that often persists today. Still relevant, this new remount uses Calgary’s current economic realities to its advantage.
“One of the best things about community theatre is that very few of us are theatre specialists by profession,” says Front Row Centre Players President Darren Stewart, in a statemen. “We’re engineers, accountants, teachers, nurses, servers, entrepreneurs, chefs, electricians… people that both love and loathe their careers outside of the theatre, who all come together to create something inside it that they can be proud of and have fun doing.”
In it we meet J. Pierrepont Finch, a window-washer with lots of dreams and some shady schemes, ready to make his ascent up the corporate ladder. Slapstick gags and sharp wit come together to make this musical stick.
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying runs March 24 to April 8, 2017 at the Beddington Heights Community Arts Centre (375 Bermuda Dr. NW).
