60 minutes. Mel Brooks on Broadway

Description

As Broadway's brightest stars gather for this year's Tony awards on Sunday, 60 Minutes decided to look back to Broadway's biggest hit ever - and maybe its funniest musical comedy ever. The show is, of course, 'The Producers.' Before it opened five years ago, correspondent Mike Wallace caught up with its lunatic creator, Mel Brooks, who based the play on his own fabled 1968 movie of the same name.
