Richard Kind is back in the fraudulent theatrical agency business.

Twenty-two years after playing Max Bialystock on Broadway following Nathan Lane in the role, the veteran actor has brought the character to the West End for the first time, starring in the revival of Mel Brooks‘ “The Producers” at London’s Garrick Theatre, where the production is running for a strictly limited seven-week engagement.
