Repertory Philippines brings the 12 Tony Award Winner Musical, The Producers.
A Broadway Musical based on the 1968 Mel Brooks film of the same title. The Producers is about two wily theatrical producers who cook up a scheme to get rich by overselling interests in a Broadway flop.
The humor of the show draws n ridiculous accents, homosexual stereotypes, and Nazis, along with many show business in-jokes. It is a satirical comedy that is deep enough for both insiders and outsiders of the theatre industry.
The Producers is a tribute to musicals, a love letter to Broadway presented with profane humor and musical numbers that audiences will enjoy.
To be directed by Jaime del Mundo, the Manila premier of THE PRODUCERS will feature top caliber actors CARLO OROSA and ROBIE ZIALCITA alternating as Max Bialystock, the beleaguered producer facing bankruptcy, who woos little old ladies into backing his shows.
TOPPER FABREGAS takes on the role of Leopold “Leo” Bloom, a cowardly and infantile hapless accountant who first has the idea to produce a flop on purpose.
Media icon G TÖNGI will tackle the role of Ulla, a blonde Swedish bombshell who auditions for the show and becomes Max and Leo’s secretary/receptionist.
Actor-director JOEL TRINIDAD plays Franz Liebkind, a former Nazi whose play is chosen by Max and Leo as a definite flop.
Stage and screen veteran NOEL TRINIDAD (Joel’s father) takes on the role of Roger De Bris, the flamboyant homosexual cross-dresser chosen to direct the show. He will be alternating with role of Roger with one of the icons of the Philippine musical theater AUDIE GEMORA.
The ensemble is composed of Nelsito Gomez, Steven Conde, Tristan Cheng, Jay Pangilinan, Chino Veguillas, Leroy de Guzman, Natalie Everett, David Shawn Delgado, Liesl Batucan, Mica Pineda, Shalee Vicencio, and Gemini Quintos.
Co-presented by the City of Makati, THE PRODUCERS is full of irreverent humor and show-stopping musical numbers, and is a must-see for all theater- and comedy-lovers.
