About The Producers
The Producers is Mel Brooks' love letter to Broadway — and it's the funniest musical in the West End. Failing Broadway producer Max Bialystock and his timid accountant Leo Bloom discover that a flop can make more money than a hit, so they set out to produce the worst show ever written. They find it in 'Springtime for Hitler' — but things don't go quite as planned.
This hilarious revival at the Garrick Theatre features show-stopping choreography, outrageous comedy and some of the catchiest songs in musical theatre. With tap-dancing showgirls, a love letter to Old Hollywood, and humour that pushes every boundary, The Producers is a guaranteed good time. Mel Brooks proved that good taste is the enemy of comedy — and he was absolutely right.
