Transylvania mania comes to Atlanta Lyric Theatre, as the metro area 's only professional musical theatre company presents Mel Brooks' hilarious musical comedy YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN now through November 8, 2015 at the Jennie T. Anderson Theatre (548 S. Marietta Pkwy., Marietta). BroadwayWorld has a new batch of production shots below!

Based on the Oscar-nominated smash hit 1974 film, YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN is the wickedly inspired re-imagining of the Mary Shelley classic from the comic genius of Mel Brooks. When Frederick Frankenstein, an esteemed New York brain surgeon and professor, inherits a castle and laboratory in Transylvania from his grandfather, deranged genius Dr. Victor Von Frankenstein, he faces a dilemma. Does he continue to run from his family's tortured past, or does he stay in Transylvania to carry on his grandfather's mad experiments reanimating the dead and, in the process, to fall in love with his sexy lab assistant Inga? Unfolding in the forbidding Castle Frankenstein and the foggy moors of Transylvania Heights, the show's raucous score includes "The Transylvania Mania," "He Vas My Boyfriend," and an unforgettable treatment of Irving Berlin's "Puttin' On the Ritz."
