Dan in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying #4

This Thread is dedicated to Dan's performance in the revival broadway production of How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.


Official news and reviews, pics and video will be updated on this thread. Feel free to discuss Dan's latest broadway venture coming next year!

Story:
How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is as story about the triumph of the common man. The hero is a window washer named J. Pierrepont Finch. After Finch happens upon a book entitled 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying', he decides to begin his rise up the corporate ladder. Following the instructions of the book, Finch lands a job in the mailroom at the World Wide Wicket Company. With the help of his handy book, Finch quickly gains promotions and outsmarts his rival, Frump - who also happens to be the boss's nephew. Finch then gains the love of Rosemary, a secretary at the company. In the end, however, after Finch's ad campaign goes awry, the book can no longer help him. He is forced to rely on his own wits and performs so admirably that he is promoted to Chairman of the Board.

Quote:
"How to Succeed," one of the rare musicals to win the Pulitzer for drama, has a score by Frank Loesser that includes "I Believe in You" and "The Company Way." Abe Burrows, Jack Weinstock and Willie Gilbert penned the book, based on the self-help satire by Shepherd Mead.

"How to Succeed" was last seen on Broadway in a 1995 production helmed by Des McAnuff and toplined by Matthew Broderick and Megan Mullally, cast as the secretary who is Finch's love interest.

Dan has only one month left. I wonder if he's feeling sad about it all or if he can't wait for the break.

Looks like the performances are during times when I'm at work

It must be a little sad. He's had a lot of fun doing it and he'll probably miss his co-stars. I just hope he comes back to Broadway in the not so distant future.

I'm sure he'll definitely miss his co-stars but he's probably enjoying all the time he has left.

I hope someone films the curtain call on his last H2S day and puts it on YT.

I like that video.
But it's always hard to watch goodbyes.

So proud for him to be deemed Entertainer of the year. And alot of this is because he KICKED ASS on Broadway and showed all the critics that he's a force to be recon with.

He's going to have a long career on stage and in film, I think. He's a talented guy, hard-working, and not being a diva will always be appreciated. I think people/critics will continue to be wowed by him.

Go Dan!!!!

Here's a video of Dan accepting the award for top fundraiser for a broadway show. H2S won!
BWW TV EXCLUSIVE: BC/EFA's GYPSY OF THE YEAR Highlights & Interviews - GREASE, HUGH, BILLY ELLIOT, Leslie Uggams & More! Video Content (BroadwayWorld.com)

skip to 8:14 unless you want to see a bunch of old people dance around and sing Grease songs.
