About the Show

A scheming producer and his mousy accountant aim to produce the biggest flop on Broadway in Mel Brooks' laugh-out-loud spectacle. A down-on-his-luck Broadway producer and his mild-mannered accountant come up with a scheme to produce the most notorious flop in history, thereby bilking their backers (all "little old ladies") out of millions of dollars. Only one thing goes awry: the show is a smash hit!

Press

  • The most complicated part of any park show is designing the complete system from the ground up. Literally the ground. We ended up with about 400 called lighting cues in the show — over 100 of which are in 'Springtime for Hitler' alone.

  • Mike Wood returns to the area as lighting designer, and once again does a superb job. I really like the rainbow flag lighting during the aforementioned 'Keep It Gay.'
