Bialystock and Bloom! Those names should strike terror and hysteria in anyone familiar with  Mel Brooks' classic musical comedy. Winner of 12 Tony Awards, THE PRODUCERS is a  beloved classic. 

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!

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 as it proudly proclaims itself an "equal opportunity offender!"
