WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Mel Brooks' 1968 cult film has finally made it to Broadway! The Producers follows two Broadway producers as they execute a most unique plan: to sell 25,000 percent of a new show, have it fail miserably, and quietly collect the money after the show closes. To ensure their success, they hire the worst of the worst to mount Springtime for Hitler, a "gay romp with Adolph and Eva at Berchtesgaden." The perfect scheme ends in disaster as Springtime for Hitler becomes the last thing anyone expected it to be: a hit! The production is directed and choreographed by Susan Stroman.

One method is to raise a tremendous amount of cash, spend a fraction of that amount to produce a sure-fire flop, cook the books, then pocket the difference after the show closes swiftly (and hope that the IRS never catches up with you). Another method is to take one of the funniest films ever made and adapt it to the musical stage with such brilliance that the result is even more wildly entertaining than the original, assemble a phenomenal cast and production team, perfect the show in an out of town tryout, bring it to Broadway with the best word-of-mouth imaginable, then sit back and smile broadly [...]
