The Menier Chocolate Factory’s smash-hit West End run of The Producers is extending in London.
The show was booking at London’s Garrick Theatre until 21 February 2026, but has now extended to 19 September 2026.
Based on Mel Brooks’ much-loved movie, The Producers has a book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan, and music and lyrics by Mel Brooks.
The production is directed by Tony Award-winner Patrick Marber (Leopoldstadt), and was a huge success at the Menier Chocolate Factory, before transferring into the West End in September. Critical reception to the show opening at the Garrick Theatre included ★★★★★ five-star reviews from the Times, Evening Standard, Express, and What’s on Stage.

Artistic Director of the Menier Chocolate Factory David Babani said in a statement: “I’m thrilled that our revival of The Producers is extending at the Garrick Theatre. Patrick Marber’s take on Mel Brooks’ musical still retains the sharp satirical humour of the original but also allows audiences to laugh at things that still remain relevant today.”
The Producers is now playing at the Garrick Theatre in London, until 19 September 2026.
