Christ Church is stepping into the fast-paced world of business, ambition and big dreams as anticipation builds for The Midnite Youth Theatre Company’s upcoming production of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.

Armed with a quirky instructional guide, ambitious window washer J. Pierrepont Finch sets out to climb the corporate ladder in this witty Broadway musical comedy. With determination, charm and clever tactics, Finch navigates workplace challenges and unexpected obstacles in his pursuit of success.

Performed by talented students in Years 10 to 12, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying promises an entertaining theatrical experience filled with sharp humour, memorable characters and plenty of surprises.

Year 11 student Jacques Sahel, who plays J. Pierrepont Finch, said bringing the character to life has been an exciting experience.

“Playing Finch has been a really fun experience because he’s such an interesting character. He’s ambitious, determined and always looking for the next opportunity, and it’s been great bringing his journey to life with the rest of the cast.”

How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying will run from Tuesday 18 August to Friday 21 August at the Subiaco Arts Centre, with performances beginning at 7.00pm.

Tickets for How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying are available here.
