The well-known creative team of Rocco Morabito (director) and Ronnie DeMarco (choreographer) are proud to say they will be the first community theatre to bring the record-breaking, 12-time Tony Award winner to the Tampa Bay area. This laugh-out-loud musical comedy is the story of scheming producer Max Bialystock and his mousy accountant Leo Bloom. It is discovered that under the right circumstances they could make more money producing a Broadway flop than they could with a hit. You won't want to miss this great big, over-the-top, fun-filled musical.
