The Producers – A New Mel Brooks Musical

Based on the classic cult film of the same name by Mel Brooks, the musical of The Producers is packed full of great songs and laugh-out-loud, in-your-face humour. On Broadway it won a record twelve Tony Awards and wowed capacity crowds night after night.

Max Bialystock, the one­-time king of Broadway producers hungry to strike it rich, and Leo Bloom, an accountant with dreams of someday becoming a theatre producer, discover that they could get richer by producing a flop than a hit and start by finding the worst show, worst director, and worst actors.

When their new production, the gloriously offensive “Springtime for Hitler,” turns out to be a smash-hit success, their plan is thrown off course and their lives are thrown into chaos. They finally go to prison for their misdeeds, but at the heart of this insanely funny adventure is a poignant, emotional journey of two very different men who, through it all, become friends.
