Fired! The Musical. centers around Bradley Finch, an ambitious corporate. downsizer who loves his job. That is to fire people. When the financial crisis of 2008 occurs, He winds up losing his job and receives an inheritance. for ten million dollars. BUT there is one catch. He must give away ten million dollars to ten people he previously fired in order to receive his real inheritance of 100 million Dollars before next New Year's Eve. Easy right? Not if you are the most hated executive in America.
