Hilarious, glitzy and politically-incorrect, The Producers is the mad-cap Mel Brooks musical that took Broadway and the West End by storm. It is the story of Max Bialystock, a luckless Broadway producer who hatches a crazy scam with Leo Bloom, his neurotic accountant: mount the worst ever show and scarper with the funds when it flops. Cue a high-kicking Swedish secretary, goose-stepping chorus boys, a stampede of sex-mad grannies, and a cross-dressing theatre director. What can go wrong? Quite a lot as it happens……
This multiple Tony Award winning show is rightly heralded as one of the funniest ever musicals ever brought to life as Bialystock and Bloom go on a mad-cap adventure as they become “The Producers”.
