    The classic Mel Brooks movie is ALIVE...and it’s headed to Boston! You’ll have a monstrously good time at this spectacular new production, winner of the 2008 Outer Critics Circle Award and the Broadway.com Audience Award for Best Musical! Don’t miss the sensational cast delivering all your favorite moments from the classic film, plus brand-new show-stopping numbers for the stage, including “Transylvania Mania,” “He Vas My Boyfriend” and “Puttin’ on the Ritz.” 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 3-time Tony® winner Mel Brooks--who wrote the music and lyrics and co-wrote the book-along with his record-breaking team from The Producers.

          This was a very funny and enjoyable play-This was an old movie that was a riot and was well adapted into a play-I would recommend this to all especially those that have seen and enjoyed the movie
