A conniving Broadway producer and his meek accountant plan to profit from charming wealthy old biddies to invest in an overbudget production, and then put on a sure-fire disaster, so nobody will ask for their money back — and what's more disastrous than a tasteless musical celebrating Adolf Hitler.

About The Producers

Broadway producer Max Bialystock, portrayed by Zero Mostel, teams up with his timid accountant Leo Bloom, played by Gene Wilder, in a scheme to get rich quick. Their plan involves overselling shares in a deliberately terrible musical, Springtime for Hitler, banking on its failure to avoid repaying investors. They seek out the worst play, the worst director, and the worst actors, confident that the show will bomb and they can disappear with the leftover funds. Little do they know, their plan is about to backfire in the most unexpected and hilarious way possible.

How to stream with ExpressVPN
