I watched the dress rehearsal of Mel Brooks’ “The Producers” Thursday night. I can see why Digger’s begging for tickets for this one. It’s funny. Complex. And deserves a PG-13 rating. It may be the Coeur d’Alene Summer Theatre production of the summer. The show opens tonight and runs through Saturday, July 18, starring Eric Hadley as Max Bialystock (left), Jen Davis as Ulla, and Matt Wade as Leo Bloom. You can read Jim Kershner’s thoughts regarding the complicated play here. I plan to see it again next Thursday as a paying customer. (J. Bart Rayniak/SR)
Question: What is the last Coeur d’Alene Summer Theatre production that you saw?

“Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat”, a wonderful production by the Summer Theater players and Schuler Performing Arts Center's tech crew.
we have great seats and always buy a season ticket to preserve them. We'll see “The Producers” on the 17th.

>>”paying customer”<< - Ouch DFO. :-)
Major kudos are due to FlorineD, however, for giving Spazz and I two tickets to go see the show. She was under no obligation to be so generous and was very kind to do so! Thank you so much Florine!
