Carrollton’s Teen Theatre will present a new twist on a comedy classic,Young Frankenstein, July 24 – 27 at the Center for the Arts.
This musical re-imaging of the Frankenstein story is based on Mel Brooks’ classic film. With the help of hunchbacked sidekick Igor and lab assistant Inga, Frederick Frankenstein slips into the mad scientist shoes of his ancestors.
“I remember when the film came out,” said Arts Center Manager Tim Chapman. “Gene Wilder was crazy good and Madeline Kahn kept me laughing throughout the movie. Mel Brooks did a great job adapting the movie into a musical. I am so happy that we get to revisit this story as we cap off our Summerween theme.”
The production’s crew includes director Alyssa Pinson, music director Ruthie Phillips, choreographer Maddie Archer, set designer David Manuel, costumer Craig Jones and stage manager Anna Kate Watkins. The music and dancing in this adaptation offers a fresh new take on the beloved production.
The performance is sponsored by Oak Mountain Academy.
Tickets are $15, $10 for 12 and younger and are available online at carrolltonarts.com, by phone at 770-838-1083 and at the center’s box office at 251 Alabama Street in Carrollton.
