Mel Brooks is an equal opportunity offender, and I think that's one of the reasons he's able to get away with so much. When it was in the planning stages, it seemed highly improbable that he could turn his 1968 feature THE PRODUCERS into a Broadway musical, much less a runaway hit. But, he and writer Thomas Meehan did just that, garnering a number of accolades and awards along the way. The Lyceum Theatre in Arrow Rock, MO begin their 50th professional season with a lively and well mounted production of THE PRODUCERS that continues their longstanding tradition of providing exceptional entertainment in the very heart of the mid-west.
