The Producers
In Mel Brooks smash hit
musical "The Producers" down on his luck
theatrical producer Max Bialystock and his accountant Leo Bloom hatch the ultimate
theatrical scam, to raise more money than they need to produce a sure-fire Broadway
disaster! What do they need? The most tasteless musical in history and the world's
worst director!
Chubby Bolton comedian Peter Kay, famous for such memorable catch phrases as "Garlic...Bread?", "Put t' big light on" and "Wanna brew?" and no stranger to directing himself is now starring as Roger DeBris, the camp director who is hired to put on the worst musical in Broadway history, "Springtime For Hitler".
Joining Peter, directly from the West End production are CORY ENGLISH as Max Bialystock and JOHN GORDON SINCLAIR as Leo Bloom. With direction and choreography by Susan Stroman, THE PRODUCERS is a guaranteed evening of “SHEER, UTTER, UNADULTERATED JOY!”
