JOSEPH Rowntree Theatre is staging the comedy musical The Producers about a show that attempts to be a flop, but becomes a Broadway success.
Mel Brooks' s hilarious comedy took Broadway and the West End by storm, winning a record breaking 12 Tony Awards and three Olivier Awards.
Failing theatre producer Max Bialystock and his accountant Leo Bloom scheme to get rich from Broadway’s biggest scam. Planning to capitalise on a “flop” show, the twosome secure “the worst play ever written” and “the worst director in town”, to open on Broadway with the gloriously offensive Springtime for Hitler.
The suggested age is 12+, with some swearing and is probably not for the easily offended.
The show runs Thursday to Saturday, February 8-10 at 7.30pm with a matinee at 2.30pm on the Saturday. https://www.josephrowntreetheatre.co.uk/events/
