  • A PEEK AT THE ORCHESTRA PIT: Not only does The Producers have the largest orchestra (21 members including the conductor!) since our very first Broadway show, My Fair Lady, it's also the largest orchestra currently performing in the Chicagoland area. No small feat. Get a peek inside the orchestra pit in this video hosted by Producers Music Director and Conductor Tom Vendafreddo. It's a rare look into a small space that's home to some huge sounds! #producersaurora #paramountaurora #orchestrapit bit.ly/2xrR5RZ

    He confused the Bell tree with the Mark tree.

    How does one get into pit? I'm in the Chicagoland area and would love to be in pit but I don't know where to begin (besides my local hs shows)

    I’m reminded of Impractical Jokers when Joe plays all the instruments and everyone is yelling at him to stop

    4:04 I'm not a percussionist or anything, but I'm still annoyed with how he's holding those.

    How do you tell the musicians to go into the pit? I'm Austrian and in German, you tell them 'bitte einsteigen' which literally translated means 'please hop in' (like you would hop on a bus for example). Is there a similar expression in English? Thanks!

      well they usually come in early (like an hour or two) before the show and stay there. I don't think they do calls or something. (Well if there is I would probably imagine it as: "get in the pit")

      It's something like "Ladies and Gentlemen of the Orchestra this is your call to the pit" or the less formal "Orchestra and beginners please". I've heard American stage managers use "Places" rather than "Beginners".

    21 is very rare in the pit these days. Most pits have max 12 and are more combos than a real "orchestra".
