HMM Special: The New Mel Brooks Musical Young Frankenstein

Today, I am interrupting the regular Halloween Movie Madness schedule for a special Halloween Musical Madness.  Sorry about that.  Things will resume normally tomorrow.


Last night, Pit & Balcony, our local theatre, opened it's 82nd season.  They did so in a spectacular fashion with The New Mel Brooks Musical Young Frankenstein, and I was lucky enough to have been graced with a pair of tickets to the opening performance last night.

Now, aside from the school plays I was in or had gone to see my little brother in, my experience in going to the theatre was nill.  That, in and of itself, was enough to make me excited about going.  Just the idea of having this kind of a night out with my wife was wonderful.  The fact that it was to see a musical version of Young Frankenstein, one of the best comedies ever put to film, was just the icing on the cake.
