A razor-sharp musical comedy about ambition, inheritance, and the art of eliminating one’s obstacles.
“I’ve decided to become a very rich man.”
When the clever but impoverished Monty Navarro discovers he is eighth in line to inherit the wealthy D’Ysquith family fortune, he sets out on a daring plan to claim what he believes is rightfully his. With charm, wit, and a growing list of increasingly creative “accidents,” Monty works his way through the aristocratic family tree while navigating a complicated love triangle. Blending farce, dark humor, and virtuosic musical theatre writing, the show is a wickedly clever satire of class, ambition, and social aspiration.
