Mel Brooks’
YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN
Book by Mel Brooks & Thomas Meehan
Music & Lyrics by Mel Brooks
Directed by Amanda Berg Wilson
JUNE 8 – AUG 31
MAINSTAGE THEATRE
A monsterously hilarious musical…
The grandson of the infamous Victor Frankenstein, Frederick Frankenstein (pronounced “Fronk-en-steen”) inherits his family’s estate in Transylvania. With the help of his sidekick, Igor (pronounced “Eye-gore”), and sultry lab assistant, Inga, Frederick finds himself in the mad scientist shoes of his ancestors. Eventually, of course, the monster escapes and hilarity continuously abounds. Young Frankenstein has all of the panache of the classic film from Gene Wilder and Mel Brooks with a dose of theatrical flair, so you’ll be “Puttin’ on the Ritz” and having a monstrously good time!
Musical Comedy, Farce
