by BWW News Desk - June 19, 2013
York Little Theatre promises side-splitting laughter on their main stage with their summer blockbuster hit THE PRODUCERS, opening July 12. Called the 'biggest hit in Broadway history,' THE PRODUCERS won more Tony Awards than any other musical (12), including Best Book, Best Score and Best Musical. Based on Mel Brooks' 1968 film of the same name, this raucous, in-your-face musical comedy features a down-on-his-luck Broadway producer (Randy Staam) and his mild-mannered accountant (Lyle Hieronymus), concocting a scheme to produce the most notorious flop in history, thereby milking their backers out of millions of dollars...but the ludicrous show becomes a smash hit! Adding to the crazy mix of characters is a curvy blonde bombshell office assistant Ulla (Rachel Ann Morgan), an unstable playwright Franz Liebkind (Andrew Matsuer), hack director Roger De Bris (Christopher Quigley) and his flamboyant assistant Carmen Ghia (Bradlee Alan Gorrera).
