“Retro Productions is a force of nature, with such strength it blew me away…  Truth, honesty, and great chops, it’s everything that is great about American theatre.” – Heather McAllister, nytheatre.com

Perhaps one of his lesser known works to us now, The Butter and Egg Man is a wonderful comedy about producing theater which was one of Kaufman’s biggest Broadway successes.  What better way to celebrate 10 years of producing theater?

The Butter and Egg Man follows our hero, Peter Jones, a likable Mid-Western boy, as he navigates the sometimes exasperating and always exciting world of Broadway.  Written in 1925, it is a hilarious satire about a seemingly simple country boy who comes to New York to break in to theatrical producing under the misguided idea that he will double his money.  But the young man may be smarter than he seems – will he be able to turn a “flop” in to a “wow”?
