The Producers

For my written review, I saw the musical The Producers with my family. The play was written by Mel Brooks in 1968, with the help of Thomas Meehan for the musical lyrics. I saw this play at the Chico Theater Company, and it was very well done. The Producers takes place in the year 1959, in New York. It is about a past-successful Broadway producer, Max Bialystock (played by Conan Duch) who almost pulls off a well planned Broadway scam with the help of his accountant Leo Bloom (played by Seth Snyder). Bialystock was once one of the greatest Broadway producers, but had a stroke of bad luck as each new play he created had flopped. No one wanted to sponsor his plays, so he had to resort to having sexual relations with many rich, old women just so…

Chicago, Mamma Mia!, and Hairspray all premiered in theaters while their counterparts were still on Broadway. There is a reciprocity to these relationships as the marketing prowess of Hollywood gets the name of the productions out to the masses, and a hit Broadway show produces excitement around the film for those far from the stage (“Return of the Hollywood Movie Musical, n.d.).
