Spanning eight decades of Broadway hits, You Won’t Succeed celebrates the Jewish contribution to musical theatre. Led by a strong cast of singers and perky dancers, we’re taken from the 1920’s to present day with the evening playing out more as cabaret than full blown musical production.

This Week Around London Theatre
By Phil Willmott Thursday, August 27 2015, 15:02
First of all can I give a quick plug for the last few days of THE FREE THEATRE FESTIVAL in the outdoor amphitheatre next to City Hall on the South Bank.
I’ve directed CAPTAIN SHOW OFF, adapted for families from the Roman comedies of Plautus playing at 6pm, and the epic ancient Greek drama, WOMEN OF TROY which starts at 8pm. Both productions are free to watch and it’s an amazing experience to sit in a crown of up to 800 watching these classics under the night sky.

The story is slow to get going and a little confusing to begin with but as the play progresses the plot unravels with an unexpected twist and it becomes extremely engaging and even heart-breaking at times.
