Description
From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation, The Producers, comes this monster new musical comedy. The comedy genius Mel Brooks adapts his legendary film into a brilliant stage creation – Young Frankenstein!
Grandson of the infamous Victor Frankenstein, Frederick Frankenstein (pronounced “Fronk-en-steen” inherits his family’s estate in Transylvania. With the help of a hunchback sidekick, Igor (pronounced “Eye-gore”), and a leggy lab assistant, Inga (pronounced normally), Frederick finds himself in the mad scientist shoes of his ancestors. “It’s ALIVE!” he exclaims as he brings to life a creature to rival his grandfather’s. Eventually, of course, the monster escapes and hilarity continuously abounds.
