YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN - Fountain Hills Theater - June 19 to July 5, 2015


The New Mel Brook’s Musical Young Frankenstein is a wickedly inspired re-imagining of the Frankenstein legend based on Mel Brooks' classic comedy masterpiece. The story follows bright young Dr. Frankenstein (that's Fronkensteen) as he attempts to complete his grandfather's masterwork and bring a corpse to life. Together with his oddly shaped and endearing helper Igor (that's Eye-gor), his curvaceous lab assistant Inga, and in spite of his incredibly self-involved madcap fiancĂ© Elizabeth, Frankenstein succeeds in creating a monster -- but not without scary and quite often hilarious complications.
