Weathervane Playhouse presents the hilarious and iconic "Young Frankenstein"
It's Alive! The electrifying musical adaptation of Mel Brooks' monstrously funny film will leave you in stitches

AKRON - From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation The Producers comes this monstrous new musical comedy. Comedic genius Mel Brooks has adapted his legendarily funny film into a brilliant stage creation - Young Frankenstein!  On stage from October 5 through the 22, show times are Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 2:30 p.m.  Tickets are $10- $26 and are available by calling the box office at 330-836-2626 or by going to www.weathervanplayhouse.com<http://www.weathervanplayhouse.com>

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 named 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.

With such memorable tunes as The Transylvania Mania, He Vas My Boyfriend, and Puttin' on the Ritz, Young Frankenstein is scientifically proven to be monstrously good entertainment!

Young Frankenstein is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. The videotaping or other video or audio recording of this production is strictly prohibited
