The Producers
Based on the 1968 film, Mel Brooks' musical The Producers is a laugh-out-loud, outrageous, crowd-pleasing farce that has been a smash hit since its 2001 debut. It ran for more than 6 years on Broadway and won an un-precedented 12 Tony Awards, a record that still stands today.
Fading Broadway producer Max Bialystock is desperate to get to the top of his profession again, and he finds an unlikely ally in mousey accountant Leo Bloom, who hypothesises that one could make far more money with a flop of a show than with a hit. Together, the two set out to produce the worst musical ever to hit Broadway, with the worst script, the worst director, and the worst cast they can find; they will raise two million dollars to finance the show, take the money and head to Rio when the show inevitably closes after just one performance. Too bad for Bialystock and Bloom that, against all odds, the show is a total hit!
With many great songs by Mel Brooks including: I Wanna Be A Producer, Keep It Gay, and the show-stopping Springtime For Hitler, The Producers is hilarious, light-hearted entertainment that guarantees you lots of laughs and a smile on your face as you leave.

Anything Goes
Cole Porter's classic and hilarious musical Anything Goes has been entertaining and delighting audiences for decades. Now you have the opportunity to enjoy the wit of author P.G. Wodehouse and the many great songs of Cole Porter - I Get A Kick Out Of You, You're The Top, It's De-Lovely, You'd Be So Easy To Love, Blow Gabriel Blow and of course the title song Anything Goes.
When the ocean liner S.S. American sets sail from New York to London, etiquette and convention are thrown out the portholes, as unlikely duos set off on the course to true love …. proving that sometimes destiny needs a little help from a crew of singing sailors, evangelical angels, a notorious line up of passengers and some good old-fashioned blackmail.
This stunning nautical favourite features the outstanding singing and choreography we are renowned for, with some of the best tap-dancing you are likely to see. The most recent Broadway revival won three Tony Awards, including Best Musical Revival and Best Choreography. So come and join us at The Whitehorse Centre in October as we take this Cole Porter classic on a journey like no other.
