Mel Brooks' New Musical
YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN
Book by Mel Brooks and Thomas MeehanMusic and Lyrics by Mel BrooksOriginal Direction and Choreography by Susan Stroman
Directed by Gene AbravayaMusic Direction by Sandy and Richard RiccardiChoreography by Michella Snider
This daffy send-up of 1930s Hollywood Monster movies follows the film closely, with many of its familiar scenes expanded for musical numbers. The characters are all there, Frederick, Igor, Inga, Frau Blucher, Elizabeth, Inspector Kemp, Harold the Hermit, and, of course, The Monster himself, still Puttin' on the Ritz.
Laughs abound as the young Frederick Frankenstein arrives in Transylvania intent upon claiming his inheritance, only to face his destiny - to follow in his grandfather's footsteps and create the next generation of The Monster.
Wouldn't you know it, things don't go the way he plans.
Performed by a live cast and orchestra and enhanced by Spreckels' Paradyne Projection System in the comfort of the Spreckels main auditorium.
A must see for the entire family!
