How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying concert comes to Festival Hall

A concert version of Frank Loesser's How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying will play the Royal Festival Hall on 19 May 2015.

The show, which is produced by Senbla in association with Elliot Davis, will be the first in a new series of musicals in concert.

It will feature the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Mike Dixon, with casting to be announced.

How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying features music and lyrics by Frank Loesser, with a script by Abe Burrows, Jack Weinstock & Willie Gilbert.

It was last seen on Broadway in 2011, starring Daniel Radcliffe as J. Pierrepont Finch, a young ambitious businessman trying to rise to chairman of the board.

Elliot Davis (Loserville, Follies in Concert), commented: "This exciting new association with Senbla Concerts and Ollie Rosenblatt is one which will see us honing in on the timeless classics of musical theatre and bringing them to concert in London with the best orchestras, casts and creative teams we can assemble."

Tickets, which start at £32.50, go on sale on 18 February 2015.
