Young Frankenstein contest

Carey — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 18:04:41 +0000

What could be more romantic than a Valentine’s Day performance of Young Frankenstein? Part of the Broadway in Fresno series, the adventures of the famous Dr. Victor von Frankenstein will come to life at 7:30 Feb. 14 at the Saroyan Theatre.

This wickedly inspired re-imagining of the Frankenstein legend follows bright young Dr. Frankenstein (that’s Fronkensteen) as he attempts to create a monster — but not without scary and hilarious complications. The brains behind the laughter is mad genius and three-time Tony(r) winner Mel Brooks himself — who wrote the music and lyrics and co-wrote the book — along with his record-breaking team from The Producers: five-time Tony-winning director and choreographer Susan Stroman and three-time Tony-winning writer, Thomas Meehan.

Leave a comment here by noon Feb. 9 to be entered into the contest. Winners will be notified by e-mail Feb. 10. Good luck!
