Anderson Cooper is coming to Broadway! The CNN newsman will voice the narrator in the upcoming How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying production starring Daniel Radcliffe. Cooper’s involvement isn’t exactly unprecedented: In 1995, Walter Cronkite performed the same vocal duties for the How to Succeed in Business revival that starred Matthew Broderick. This incarnation of the musical, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, begins previews on Feb. 26, at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre.

Here’s a Headline: Annndersonnn, your eyes ARE a national treasure!!! Voice too, of course. I’m sure Andy Samberg and Peewee Herman would totally agree…and that’s no prank!
i’ll be there!
Great choice; I’ve been waiting on this voice casting news a while. Can’t wait to see one of musical theatre’s true underrated gems back on Broadway!
The 1995 revival was the first Broadway show I ever saw. I’m heading back to NYC for this one!
Love both of them, can’t wait for the musical to open next month!
Hi Jeff! Frank and I purchased two tickets to see the Sat March 19 H2SIBWT preview performance. We had no idea that the narrator is AC. Looking forward to our trip (though, brief) to NYC. my best from JHU-Baltimore. -Jay
