The Roxy Theatre Group (RTG) and the Greater Miami Youth Symphony (GMYS), two youth arts programs, are ready to Broadway up Miami with the Tony-Award winning musical, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.  Representing over 25 schools and colleges in Miami-Dade County, the cast and orchestra of 70 students, ages 12-22, bring forth an illuminating musical theater explosion to the local arts scene.

Through vibrant songs and exuberant choreography, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying culminates in an energetic story of ambition, love and the hilarious behind-the-scenes antics of the corporate world.  The music and lyrics are by Frank Loesser and book by Abe Burrows, Jack Weinstock, and Willie Gilbert.  GMYS and RTG collaborate to present this musical cornucopia thanks to The Children’s Trust.  GMYS is dedicated to training young musicians, ages 5-18.

“Since RTG provides a performing arts training program, we always know that eventually these students will grow up and move on to do great things, but while they are with us, they always amaze me with their talent and how well they do the work.  How To Succeed promises to live up to the quality of show we have come to expect from our productions, thanks to our students,” said Charles A. Sothers, 35, RTG’s Theatre Arts Director. Sothers plays the role of J.B. Biggley in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and is a Florida International University Alum.

Celebrating its 10^th anniversary,

New Theatre had to seek another venue, as the 100-seat locale where they commissioned and world premiered over fifty ground breaking productions, such as Nilo Cruz’s Pulitzer Prize winning play Anna In The Tropics (2003), since 2001 is to be demolished in January, 2012.  Established in a renovated movie-house since 2002 and best known for their children’s performing arts programming, The Roxy Theatre Group is thrilled to provide New Theatre with a headquarters for the 2011-2012 season.

As part of the partnership, RTG’s advanced students will have the opportunity to audition and work backstage for New Theatre’s shows, enabling young performers to gain Actors’ Equity Association credentials, essential for theatre professionals.  Artists from New Theatre will also provide theater workshops to RTG students.  While this commences an extraordinary culmination, each organization will remain producing artistic endeavors separately.

“We wanted to help New Theatre, as soon as we became aware of the situation.  After all the show must go on!,” said Jorgina Fernandez, Artistic Director & Co-Founder for The Roxy Theatre Group.

“We are incredibly appreciative of The Roxy Theatre Group opening their home to us!  It completely makes sense that a top-notch performing arts youth program partner with an award-winning, nationally recognized theatre company.  Our individual missions can only be strengthened by our co-existence!,” said Ricky J. Martinez, New Theatre’s Artistic Director. Founded in 1986, New Theatre is a multi-cultural theatre producing a season of Nouveau Classic works, blending classics and new works.

Please visit www.RoxyPac.com & www.new-theatre.org for The Roxy Theatre Group’s and New Theatre’s respective seasons.  The Roxy Theatre Group offers classes in drama, voice and dance to children ages 3-17, with year-round programs including two after school care programs and a performing arts summer camp.
