Red Arrow steals the show from Florida

Stealing the Show! airs on ProSieben

Red Arrow Studio International has acquired the global distribution rights to quizshow format Stealing the Show! from Germany’s Florida Entertainment.

Originally produced for German broadcaster ProSieben, where a second season is due to air later this year, Stealing the Show! sees three celebrity contestants and one member of the public compete to ‘steal the show’ and take control of the next episode as quiz master.

The host fires fun and outrageous questions at the contestants and after each round the losing contestant leaves, until only one is left to go head-to-head with the host.

The winner gets to become the quiz master in the next episode, deciding everything from the theme and tone of the show to the rules of the game. But the contestants include the previous defeated host who tries to steal back their show.

Tim Gerhartz, senior VP of global sales at Red Arrow Studios International, said: “Stealing the Show! is a bold, audacious and original concept which breathes new energy into the quizshow genre and perfectly complements our slate of noisy gameshow formats.

“The remarkable response to the show on ProSieben is testament to its broad family appeal and ability to deliver impressive ratings in a primetime slot. We look forward to building upon the show’s local success and bringing this thrilling new format to the international market.”
