There was 'no way out' of the hilarious interview with the cast of Marriott Lincolnshire's The Producers. Ross Lehman (Max), Guy Adkins (Leo), Angela Feeney (Ulla), Bernie Yvon (Roger) and Michael Aaron Lindner (Franz) are all on board this wild ride of an interview. Even the janitors of the theatre get involved. For those of you watching with a video iPod, look for a special cameo with the show's creator, Mel Brooks.

The Marriott Theatre is proud to present the Tony-award winning smash hit comedy, The Producers. Previews begin September 5, press opening is September 12, and runs through December 2 at the Marriott Theatre,10 Marriott Drive, Lincolnshire. This outrageously funny musical from the incomparable Mel Brooks won 12 Tony Awards, more than any other show in history - and is based on the 1968 Academy Award-winning cult film classic of the same title.
