<br>
It's alive! The electrifying adaptation of Mel Brooks' monstrously funny film will leave you in stitches!<br>
<br>
>From the creators of the record-breaking Broadway sensation The Producers comes this monstrous new musical comedy. Comedy genius Mel Brooks has adapted his legendarily funny film into a brilliant stage creation – Young Frankenstein!<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
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!<br>
