About Young Frankenstein

Book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan
Music and Lyrics by Mel Brooks
Original Broadway Direction and Choreography by Susan Stroman
 

The crazy comic genius of Mel Brooks (“The Producers”) comes ALIVE in this outlandish laugh riot of a musical! Adapted from the hilarious film of the same name, this Tony-nominated show breathes new Schick into the franchise, thanks to expanded scenes and new gags. With such classy numbers as “The Transylvania Mania,” “He Vas My Boyfriend” and “Puttin’ On The Ritz,” it’s easy to see why Newsday called the Broadway production “a blissfully funny monster mash.” At the Gateway, this science experiment gone horribly wrong has never felt so hilariously right.
