New Alexandra Theatre has confirmed that Phill Jupitus is to join Jason Manford, David Bedella and Louis Spence in Mel Brooks’ musical comedy The Producers when it shows at the Birmingham venue in April. Jupitus will take the role of Franz Liebkind, the short-fused, carrier pigeon-keeping former Nazi who’s brought on board by Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom to help them stage the worst musical of all time.
