★★★★★ ‘The Funniest Show In London’ – Evening Standard
This outrageous musical has audiences and critics roaring, declaring it a ★★★★★ ‘masterful comedy – the show we need right now’ (The Times).
The first major London revival of Mel Brooks’ The Producers has exploded onto the West End with ‘his genius for hammily catchy melodies and taboo-busting gags’ (★★★★★ Sunday Express), now playing at the Garrick Theatre after its sold-out run at the Menier Chocolate Factory.
Based on Brooks’ cult classic film, the original Broadway production won a record-breaking twelve Tony Awards, and this revival proves why. When down-on-his-luck producer Max Bialystock teams up with timid accountant Leo Bloom to stage a surefire flop, their scheme backfires with thunderous applause and unstoppable laughter.
Reimagined by Tony Award-winning director Patrick Marber and with triumphant performances from Andy Nyman, Marc Antolin, Trevor Ashley, Raj Ghatak, Harry Morrison and Joanna Woodward, The Producers is officially ‘the musical riot of the century’ (Mail on Sunday) – a riotous, joy-filled hit you can’t afford to miss.
The Producers has a book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan, music and lyrics by Mel Brooks, original direction and choreography by Susan Stroman, and is presented by special arrangement with StudioCanal.
Since arriving at the Garrick Theatre, The Producers has become one of the most talked-about musical comedies in London’s West End and a popular choice for theatre-goers exploring things to do in London.
The revival is known for its bold humour and memorable musical numbers, including I Wanna Be a Producer, Keep It Gay and Springtime for Hitler.
Book The Producers direct with Nimax Theatres via the Garrick Theatre Box Office for official tickets, no booking fees, and options for groups, schools and access customers.
