I revert to childhood when I see a Mel Brooks movie or show. The sillier the better: the sight gags, the double entendres, the more the merrier. The New Mel Brooks Musical, Young Frankenstein is a real rip-roaring hoot of a show from start to finish with a great cast and zippy fast-paced direction from Susan Stroman.
On July 27, 'Young Frankenstein' had its opening night at the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood, California. YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN is currently on a U.S. tour. The cast includes Roger Bart, Shuler Hensley, Cory English, and Beth Curry. BroadwayWorld brings coverage of the event below.
