Eric StoneLighting design by Andrew CarsonCostume design by Shelbi Wilkin \n\n\n\nBig business means big laughs in this delightfully clever lampoon of life on the corporate ladder. A tune-filled comic gem that took Broadway by storm\, winning both the Tony Award for Best Musical and a Pulitzer Prize\, How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying boasts an exhilarating score by Frank Loesser\, including “I Believe in You\,” “Brotherhood of Man” and “The Company Way.” \n\n\n\nA satire of big business and all it holds sacred\, How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying follows the rise of J. Pierrepont Finch\, who uses a little handbook called How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying to climb the corporate ladder from lowly window washer to high-powered executive\, tackling such familiar but potent dangers as the aggressively compliant “company man\,” the office party\, backstabbing coworkers\, caffeine addiction and\, of course\, true love. An irreverent and tuneful romp\, jam-packed with sly\, swift and sharp jabs to the funny bone\, How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying is a surefire hit! \n\n\n\nSuggested Show Rating: PG \n\n\n\nThis production contains theatrical haze and slowly flickering lighting effects. \n\n\n\n\nDigital Program\n\n\n\nShenandoah Conservatory uses digital programs for all performances.

Based on the electrifying novel by Bret Easton Ellis\, the musical follows Patrick Bateman\, a young and handsome Wall Street banker whose life revolves around designer labels\, exclusive restaurants and relentless ambition. Beneath his polished exterior\, however\, lurks a far darker reality — and the carefully constructed mask he presents to the world is beginning to crack. \n\n\n\nGuest directed by Andy Mientus\, this production is boldly reimagined for an intimate performance space\, plunging audiences into the seductive excess and moral emptiness of 1980s Manhattan. Driven by a pulsating score\, razor-sharp satire and psychological suspense\, American Psycho explores the dark intersections of identity\, status and obsession in a society consumed by appearances. \n\n\n\nProvocative\, stylish and unsettling\, this electrifying musical thriller challenges audiences to look beneath the surface and confront the dangers of a culture where image reigns supreme. \n\n\n\nSuggested Show Rating: R \n\n\n\nThis production contains violence\, blood\, sexual themes\, adult language\, theatrical haze\, intense strobe lighting effects and loud music.
