The Producers

Bialystock and Bloom! Those names should strike hysteria in anyone familiar with Mel Brooks' classic cult comedy film. In 2001, The Producers premiered on Broadway and once again set the standard for modern, outrageous, in-your-face humor, winning a record 12 Tony Awards. ASGT caps off our 50th anniversary year with this modern classic, celebrating its 15th anniversary in 2016.
The plan is simple: a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and his mild-mannered accountant scheme to produce the most notorious flop in Broadway history, thereby bilking their backers out of millions of dollars. But one thing goes awry: their show (the outrageously offensive “Springtime for Hitler”) is a smash hit! At the core of this insanely funny adventure is a poignant journey of two very different men who become unlikely friends. With a truly hysterical book co-written by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan (Annie) and music and lyrics by Mr. Brooks, The Producers takes no prisoners, as it proudly proclaims itself an "equal opportunity offender!"
