If you're like me and enjoyed The Producers, then you will most likely also enjoy YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN the musical scheduled to be completed in the Spring of 2004. Just think we will be able to enjoy "Walk this way!" again. Roger Bart definitely has to play "Eye-gor"! Who will play Frankenstein and Frau Blucher? Can Brooks and Meehan do it again?

Check out the following Playbill article titled, "Brooks and Meehan Expect to Complete Young Frankenstein in Spring 2004" at the following link:

Is this something that would really lend itself easily to a musical? I loved the movie but I really wonder if this would make a good musical. I hope they do a good job with it. I'd hate to see them kill a great movie.

A pathetically, desperately dumb idea.

A brilliant extraordinarily smart idea!

I think it's a great idea! I reacall a lot of people being uneasy about The Producers when that first got out. Look at them now!

...if it was done as a out-and-out parody of an ALW-type musical.

If that were the case, it would be inappropriate to include something I still yearn to see: A Mel Brooks-Susan Stroman verson of a Broadway "Dream Ballet".
