Mel Brooks' quirky musical Young Frankenstein is making its West End premiere at London's Garrick Theatre. Based on the 1974 Oscar-nominated film co-written with Thomas Meehan and starring Gene Wilder, the brand new production follows a Broadway run that closed in 2009. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

Ross Noble, Lesley Joseph and Hadley Fraser will lead the cast of Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein - the classic comedy musical based on the Oscar-nominated smash hit movie - which opens in the West End on Thursday 28 September at the Garrick Theatre.

Last night featured my first pantomime of this year's festive season, the unconventional Beauty and the Beast at the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry. There is the usual rotation of pantomimes that many theatres alternate; most commonly Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, Aladdin, Sleeping Beauty and Dick Whittington with a few other options for good measure. Beauty and the Beast is one that I personally haven't seen in a pantomime format before and did it work? I think so!

Finding a festive night out that doesn't suck can be a real pain in the neck. Fortunately, there's a festive show to suit all tastes at the Belgrade this Christmas with a bumper season of yuletide entertainment including the return of the ever-popular Belgrade panto and the premiere of Nick Walker's fang-tastic B2 Xmas comedy, VAMPOMIME. Plus, young theatre goers can look forward to an early visit from Father Christmas in a brand new festive show for ages 6 and under, SANTA'S RUSTY ROBOT, written and directed by Tweenies' creator Iain Lauchlan.
