NEW YORK TIMES REVIEW:

NEW YORK POST REVIEW:

"Daniel Radcliffe is so adorable in his Broadway musical debut, you just want to pinch his cheeks. It's not just his youth -- the "Harry Potter" star is 21 -- but the endearing amount of dedication and enthusiasm he pours into steering the new revival of "How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.""

USA TODAY REVIEW:

"It's an old showbiz rule that a performer should never make his job look like work. But there are times when it's great fun to watch an actor, particularly a famous one, rise to an obvious challenge."

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY REVIEW:

"You don't need a self-help book to figure out how to revive Frank Loesser's dated but worthy 1961 musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. All you really need is Daniel Radcliffe, the 21-year-old coiled spring of energy who manages to embody the ethos of corporate-ladder-climbing opportunist J. Pierpont Finch with a winning combination of youth, talent, and sheer willpower."

LA TIMES REVIEW:

"Harry Potter as a triple threat? Let’s not get carried away. The sorcery of director Rob Ashford’s Broadway revival of “How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” which opened Sunday at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre, isn’t that potent. "

HOLLYWOOD REPORTER REVIEW:

CHICAGO TRIBUNE REVIEW:

"Daniel Radcliffe has one huge advantage over others who've played J. Pierrepont Finch, the ambitious young fellow atop the 1961 musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." Radcliffe is a fully established, wholly bankable, entirely charming international star at the age of 21. He doesn't have to play the role like a Broadway wiseguy; he can play him as a risk-taking, flying-by-the-seat-of-his-pants kid."

AM NEW YORK REVIEW:

"He’s starring in a show called “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” but no one can accuse 21-year-old Daniel Radcliffe of not “trying” to prove that his talent as an actor stretches beyond potions and wizardry at Hogwarts."

WASHINGTON POST REVIEW:

"Daniel Radcliffe, the plucky young anchor of the “Harry Potter” franchise, is in dire straits once again, entangled in a scary predicament requiring the fortitude and resourcefulness of a wizard of far greater experience than his."

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS REVIEW:

"There are times when a wizard has to try to cast new spells. Three years ago, "Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe came to Broadway for "Equus" and proved himself a solid dramatic actor."
