On Stage: Theatre The Producers Algonquin Arts Theatre, 60 Abe Voorhees Drive,Manasquan The plot is simple: a down-on- his-luck Broadway producer and his mild-mannered accountant come up with a scheme to pro- duce the most notorious flop in history, thereby bilking their backers (all “little old ladies”) out of millions of dollars. Only one thing goes awry: the show NJ STAGE - ISSUE 46 is a smash hit! With a truly hysterical book co-written by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan (Annie) and music and lyrics by Mr. Brooks, The Producers skewers Broadway traditions and takes no prison- ers! Performances run May 11- May 20th at the Algonquin. INDEX NEXT ARTICLE 86
