WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

The Producers, based on Mel Brooks' 1968 cult film, 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.

David Hasselhoff plays the outrageously flamboyant character, Roger DeBris.
