Based on the film by Mel Brooks
A New Mel Brooks Musical. Adapted by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan from Brooks’ 1968 film of the same name, with lyrics by Brooks and music by Brooks and Glen Kelly. As in the film, the story concerns two theatrical producers who scheme to get rich by overselling interests in a Broadway flop. Complications arise when the show unexpectedly turns out to be successful.

What drew me to the show was what drew me to the work that Catastrophic Theatre does in general. They do work that nobody else does. Work that's largely unexplored in our region, or in our country, or whatever. I'm drawn to that kind of stuff, and Sarah Kane has a unique view of love and human relationships. And I share some of those ideas.
A major revival of Jerry Herman's Jerry's Girls will open at The Menier Chocolate Factory next month. Directed by Hannah Chissick, with choreography by Matt Cole, musical supervision and arrangements by Sarah Travis, and an all-female band, this new production opens on 22 May.
