The Menier Chocolate Factory’s critically acclaimed sell-out production of The Producers with book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan, and music & lyrics by Mel Brooks transfers to the West End.
The production opens at the Garrick Theatre 30 August 2025 – 21 February 2026, with Andy Nyman (Fiddler on the Roof, Abigail’s Party, Assassins – Menier, Hello Dolly – London Palladium, Governor Thropp in the film Wicked and creator of Ghost Stories), Marc Antolin (I Wish You Well – The Gwyneth Paltrow Ski-Trial Musical – Edinburgh Fringe/Criterion, The Band’s Visit – Donmar Warehouse), Trevor Ashley (Liza (on an E), I’m Every Woman, Diamonds Are for Trevor), Raj Ghatak (The Father and the Assassin – National Theatre, Life of Pi, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie – Sheffield Theatres), Harry Morrison (Come from Away – Phoenix Theatre/Abbey Theatre, The Third Man and Assassins for the Menier) and Joanna Woodward (The Time Traveller’s Wife: The Musical – Apollo Theatre, Merrily We Roll Along for the Menier) all reprising their roles from the original Menier run.
Based on the classic cult film, the original Broadway production won a record twelve Tony Awards, and skewers Broadway traditions, taking no prisoners as it proudly proclaims itself an “equal opportunity offender!”.
Down-on-his-luck Broadway producer Max Bialystock schemes with timid accountant Leo Bloom to create the biggest flop in theatre history – only to have it backfire spectacularly, and with thunderous applause.
Mel Brooks said today, “Hello Brits! My record-breaking musical, The Producers, is coming back to the West End! I couldn’t be more proud of this show. I can’t wait to sit in the Garrick Theatre and be bathed in laughter.”
Full cast and creative team for the production will be announced shortly.
