The New England Regional Theatre Premiere! Winner Of 12 Tony® Awards, Including Best Musical! NSMT is thrilled to present the musical that won more Tony® Awards than any other show in history. Based on the hit 1968 film, this Mel Brooks masterpiece is the story of a washed-up Broadway producer and his timid accountant who hatch a scheme to get rich quick by producing a sure-fire flop. It's a comic tour-de-force that spoofs the big, old-fashioned Broadway musical while paying tribute to it at the same time. The Producers, originally directed and choreographed by Susan Stroman, will leave you laughingout loud!
