The majority of the cities become famous in particular for at least a thing. Paris is synonymous with novel and end-dinner, New York is famous for yellow skyscrapers and taxis, while London is known like house of the queen and the buses on two red floors. And the semi-official capital of Manchester, England of the north, is not any different.

But whilst its illustrious and world renowned football club Manchester United may well be the first thing that comes to people’s minds when asked to think about one thing they associate with the city, Manchester has produced some of the world’s greatest and most influential bands ever.

Indeed, for music lovers, this north-western city of around half a million people is synonymous with great bands of the past and present. And this reputation is perhaps one of the reasons why so many young people move there to study at two of the top five biggest universities in the UK; the University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University.

As far back as the 1960s and 1970s, Mancunian bands such as the Hollies, the Bee Gees and Freddie and the Dreamers were selling records by the bucket-loads. And in 1965 alone, Herman’s Hermits outsold the Beatles, selling over ten million records in a seven month period.

In the past four decades, Manchester has spawned countless internationally-renowned bands covering a myriad of genres. The Buzzcocks released the first ever independent-label punk record in early 1977. And The Smiths - fronted by the charismatic Morrissey - formed in 1982, going on to become one of the most influential ‘indie’ bands of all time.

In this article we’re going to review a musical that has had more revivals and renditions than any musical in history.

For those who were not around in the 1960s it is really hard to know which came first, the chicken or the egg. Or, in the case of the musical The Producers, which version came first.

The original version of The Producers was actually a movie from back in the 60s that starred Zero Mostel as Max Bialystock and Gene Wilder as Leo Bloom. It wasn’t until the movie was turned into a Broadway musical play by creator Mel Brooks years later that its popularity really soared. To confuse things even more, the play was turned back into a movie just recently, with the latest version looking more like the play than the original movie. As a matter of fact, the movie starred the two people most identified with the popular play, Nathan Lane as Bialystock and Matthew Broderick as Bloom. This cast has been said to have performed the definitive version of this critically acclaimed play.

For those not familiar with the story, it is a simple one. Bialystock tries to think of a way to make a lot of money on Broadway. He figures out, with the help of Bloom, that the best way would be to create a play that was so bad that it would close after one performance. Then they could take all the money that backers gave to them for a long run and make their way to Rio with it. Well, things didn’t quite work out the way they planned. The horrible play, “Springtime For Hitler” became an instant smash and the two crooks were eventually sent to jail for their diabolical plan.

Mel Brooks is no less than a genius, not only because he wrote such a clever and insane plot but because he knew to get two of the most talented people in the business, Lane and Broderick, to play the lead roles.
