SYNOPSIS:
This musical adaptation of the Mel Brooks comedy film of the same name follows the story of Dr. Frederick Frankenstein as he attempts to prove his eccentric grandfather's genius in bringing life back to a corpse. The show features a mix of musical numbers, slapstick humor, and spoofs of classic horror tropes, often with a raunchy and irreverent tone.
Young Frankenstein is sponsored in part by Basket Case Karaoke, Jamie Harwood, Lost Art & Design, Club Diesel and the Burger Barge.
