Young Frankenstein Pre-Preview Performance

Posted: 8/6/07 at 7:21pm

I got a call the other day asking me if I would like to attend an "invitation only" performance of Young Frankenstein in Seattle. This is being performed on Monday, the 6th, a day before the official preview opening.

I've taken a couple of quick tours backstage to look at the sets and machinery. The Paramount has NEVER had so many set pieces and equipment in it.

I'll give a quick review after the show. I'll be seeing the show twice more while it's in Seattle to see how it tightens up and to see if there are any changes.

I was looking forward to this 'pre' review, too. But the silence may be of the "if you can't say anything nice" school of posting. Maybe it is a good thing for the cast and crew that he remain silent.

PEACE.

Keep in mind -- that person IS on the west coast, so it's about 9:30am there right now. I highly doubt they're going to bolt onto the computer to post their review. They could still be sleeping. Give them a few more hours.

I'm really looking forward to any review of Young Frankenstein's out of town tryout. I would ask that the person writing would include the songs in the show as well.
