> One of my favorite Mel Brooks movies is _The Producers_, so when I heard they were making a Broadway musical based on the film, my reaction was a very enthusiastic "Huh". When I heard that the ticket prices were going to be a hundred dollars each (making this the most expensive show on Broadway), my reaction was a less-than enthusiastic "Huh". When I discovered that the musical was nominated for thirty-seven Tonys and they won more awards that they were nominated for and that the original cast was going to be leaving in a year's time, I realized I had better get tickets. >
Aha! I was thinking of this movie a while back (when I heard the 'Springtime for Hitler' line used as a riff in MST3K, actually) and I couldn't remember for the life of me what it was called... and my parents were mostly convinced that such a film HAD to be a figment of my imagination. Thanks for proving that I'm not, at least in this instance, crazy. ;)
Oh, and the musical sounds like it rules. Wow.
