For Daniel Radcliffe, this play will be his second Broadway appearance. As early as 2007, he has made his stage debut in a revival of the 1975 Tony-winning best play "Equus" after finishing the sixth film in the franchise -- "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince".

This time in “How to Succeed“, Radcliffe is going to play J. Pierpont Finch, a young window cleaner who, with the help of a Machiavellian guidebook, climbs to the top of a huge company while, of course, winning a girl’s love along the way. 


Audiences have been pleased with the news.
