Young Frankenstein and The Little Mermaid open in Seattle
Well two of the most anticipated new musicals of the upcoming Broadway season have opened to critics in their out of town tryouts.First up is” Young Frankenstein” and to no ones surprise the critics have all fallen under Mel Brooks’ comedic spell. Advance word has proven correct and they predict with some fine tuning this is sure to become a major hit! Mel’s humor is certainly not for everyone but to quote the Seattle Times; "Young Frankenstein" has a cast of expert merry-makers, shtick galore, winning dance numbers, elaborate sets by Robin Wagner that are marvels of seamless stage technology, and all the explosions, fog, with wowie lighting effects” and that to me spells HIT !!
Here is the complete review from the Seattle Times; http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/thearts/2003851421_frankenstein25.html
