YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN
Book: Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan
Music and Lyrics: Mel Brooks
Directed by Rose Linnell
Music Director: Mike Konnerth
Choreographer: Natania Ferron
Producer: Sally Palmer
It’s Alive! (And it’s Hilarious!) From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation The Producers comes the monstrously mad musical, Young Frankenstein! Frederick Frankenstein (pronounced “Fronk-en-steen”) reluctantly inherits his infamous family’s estate in Transylvania. Urged on by a hunchbacked sidekick, Igor (pronounced “Eye-gore”), and a leggy lab assistant, Inga (pronounced normally), Frederick finds himself fulfilling his grandfather’s corpse-raising legacy. This electrifying musical stage adaptation of Mel Brooks’ brilliantly funny film will leave you in stitches!
