Riverside Theatre’s ‘How to Succeed’ still funny 50 years later

Who’d have thought a nitwit, a bimbo, a braggart and a big shot could set up a classist conundrum of morality. Not quite?

I lost all those perfect teeth.” And that’s how the musical director of Yo-yo Ma’s Silk Road Project has faced all of his audiences – with humor. His once checkboard smile is perfect again, fixed last year after an accident five years ago knocked out nine of his teeth. He was visiting Vero last month to build interest for his fifth international Mike Block String Camp scheduled for early July. For ...
