from the creators of the record-breaking broadway sensation, the producers, comes this monster new musical comedy. the comedy genius, mel brooks, adapts his legendarily funny 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 hunchbacked 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.
