The Producers

Today @ Broadway Theatre Center - 2 p.m.

Jan. 04, 2009

midnight

Skylight Theatre’s Artistic Director Bill Theisen and comic talent Brian Vaughn star in the title roles of the Mel Brooks/Thomas Meehan hit musical The Producers, which concludes its run this afternoon with a 2 p.m. performance at the Broadway Theatre Center. Theisen plays the reprehensible yet lovable, down-on-his-luck theater producer Max Bialystock. During a conversation with his accountant, Leo Bloom (Vaughn), Bialystock realizes that one of his shows closed so quickly that he actually received more funding than he spent on it. With that in mind, the two men scheme to raise an immense amount of money for a show engineered to be so bad that it closes after opening night, allowing them to make a fortune on it.

I can see why people want to do this.It sounds good on paper. The problem is so many people will abuse this. I agree with many other people. If you want benefits get a job that offers them.

Pure liberal, leftist, sense of entitlement lunancy. Liberals, by nature, are ineffectual and lazy but this is just over the top. If you work for a company or an organization that does not offer the type of benefits you desire then LOOK FOR A JOB THAT DOES YOU LAZY SOCIALISTS!
