Young Frankenstein is a parody of the horror genre, re-imagining the Mary Shelley classic. Based on the Oscar-nominated Mel Brooks 1974 classic film starring Hollywood legend Gene Wilder, Young Frankenstein is electrifying. With story, music, and lyrics by Mel Brooks himself, and co-written with Thomas Meehan (who worked with Mel on The Producers), Young Frankenstein is packed full of toe-tapping tunes including Irving Berlin’s ‘Puttin’ on the Ritz’ and much, much more.
