No, it’s not a recruitment ad directed at aspiring business graduates but publicity for a new off-Broadway comedy about, of all things, hedge fund managers.
Burleigh Grime$ (see picture) opened in June and tells the story of a Wall Street apprentice working under a manipulative and calculating mentor, Mr Grimes. The slightly hammed-up production’s story line is a little unbelievable – the NYT critic slammed it as “long on ludicrous plot and short on fresh humor” – but its slogan, “sex, money and rock ’n’ roll”, seems to sum up the hedge fund community pretty well these days.
