Many of you are probably familiar with the Mel Brooks movie Young Frankenstein; well it’s now on Broadway. The hysterical film that was released in 1974, starring Gene Wilder and Peter Boyle, has come to the big stage and is stirring up just as much hype as the movie. I happen to love Mel Brooks and all of his works, but this particular movie was one of my favorites. The show stars Roger Bart as Dr. Frankenstein and Shuler Hensley as the monster. It is currently playing at the Hilton Theatre on 214 West 42nd street. The show, which is just under 3 hours long, opened on November 8, 2007 and has been extremely successful so far without much advertising. According to Broadway.com, the show has filmed a short commercial which will be airing on television sets nationwide and gives the viewers a little preview of the hit musical. To see the commercial before it hits the air or to get tickets, copy and paste the link below. I can’t wait to see it live!

I went to see Young Frankenstein over spring break, and it was the funniest show I have ever been too. I took my boyfriend, who had never seen a Broadway show before, and both of us laughed from the beginning to the end. Neither of us have seen the movie in its entirety, but we are planning on renting it to see how it compares. I don't think it will be able to, because of the amazing acting, but I'm still excited to see it.
