Based on the classic cult film, The Producers won a record twelve Tony Awards when the original Broadway production played in 2001. This will be the first time the musical has played in the West End since 2004.
The cast includes Andy Nyman as Max Bialystock, Marc Antolin as Leo Bloom, Trevor Ashley as Roger DeBris, Raj Ghatak as Carmen Ghia, Harry Morrison as Franz Liebkind, and Joanna Woodward as Ulla, are Alex Lodge (Storm Trooper), Kelsie-Rae Marshall (Hold-Me-Touch-Me), Megan Armstrong, Olly Christopher, Gabrielle Cocca (Dance Captain), Ryan Pidgen (Standby Max), Nolan Edwards, Michael Franks, Matt Gillett (Resident Director), Esme Kennedy, Sinead Kenny, Josh Kiernan (Assistant Dance Captain), Kate Parr, Emma Robotham-Hunt, Pierce Rogan, Hollie Jane Stephens, and Jermaine Woods.
The Producers follows down-on-his-luck Broadway producer Max Bialystock, who schemes with his timid accountant Leo Bloom to create the biggest flop in theatre history - only to have it backfire spectacularly, and with thunderous applause.
The production will begin performances at the Garrick Theatre from 30 August and runs through to 21 February 2026.
