The Producers at Menier Chocolate Factory review: a superb revival of this buoyantly vulgar Broadway musical

The buoyantly vulgar Broadway musical Mel Brooks shaped from his 1967 film – Thomas Meehan helped on the book, but the songs are all vintage Brooks – is superbly retooled for the Menier’s stage by director Patrick Marber.

There’s a gloriously shabby performance from Andy Nyman as the dodgy producer Bialystok and a sweet-voiced one from Marc Antolin in the trickier role of Bloom, the man-child accountant who works out they can make more from a theatrical flop than a hit.
