A year with the producers :one actor's exhausting (but worth it) journey from Cats to Mel Brooks' Mega-Hit

What's it like to work in the biggest hit Broadway has seen in years? In this book based on his almost daily notes, Jeffry Denman tells the story of a year in one performer's life, from his job in the final days of Cats (now and forever, but finally closed) to a small but promising part in the Mel Brooks smash. Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft, Susan Stroman, Gary Beach, and Roger Bart are all here in Jeffry Denman's story. We follow The Producers from its first casting call to the Chicago tryouts; we watch numbers cut and roles reassigned; we are there at the record-breaking New York opening, and then at the Tony awards (where the show won more categories than any show in Tony history). What makes this book special is that we watch through Jeffry Denman's eyes - not the star's perspective but the view from the chorus. Denman takes on several small roles in the show - the Blind Musician; the Little Wooden Boy; FDR; a little old lady dancing with a walker; and Scott, resident choreographer to famed bad director Roger DeBris.
