Bialystock and Bloom!

Those names should strike terror and hysteria in anyone familiar with Mel Brooks’ classic cult comedy film.

FPAC presents The Producers!

It is a truly “boffo” hit, winning a record twelve Tony Awards.

The plot is simple: a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and his mild-mannered accountant come up with a scheme to produce the most notorious flop in history, thereby bilking their backers (all “little old ladies”) out of millions of dollars.

Only one thing goes awry: the show is a smash hit!

The antics of Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom as they maneuver their way fecklessly through finding a show (the gloriously offensive “Springtime for Hitler”), hiring a director, raising the money and finally going to prison for their misdeeds is a lesson in broad comic construction.

At the core of the insanely funny adventure is a poignant emotional journey of two very different men who become friends.

With a truly hysterical book co-written by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan (Annie) and music and lyrics by Mr. Brooks, The Producers skewers Broadway traditions and takes no prisoners!

Content Warning: The Producers is a Mel Brooks comedy full of adult humor and innuendo.

Audience discretion is advised.
