The Producers

A totally irreverent musical, The Producers is adapted from Mel Brooks’ 1968 film of the same name. Brash, camp, over-the-top and yet capable, at times, of being surprisingly touching. The original musical won an unprecedented twelve Tony Awards (including Best Musical and Best Original Score) and was hailed as “a gift from the show-biz gods” (Time Magazine). Max Bialystock, once the king of Broadway is now notorious only for producing flops. Then he realises that if he could put on a show that’s so tasteless it’s guaranteed to fail, he could keep all the investment money! The all singing, all dancing spectacular Springtime for Hitler seems perfect – except there’s no accounting for taste!  Fast-paced, colourful, brash and outrageously funny, The Producers is a show definitely NOT to be missed by either audiences or performers!

This will be an original version of the show, drawing some ideas from the Broadway and West End hit shows but incorporating new staging, visual gags and an increased role for the chorus.
