YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN Opens Home Made Theater’s 34th Season

            Home Made Theater, Saratoga’s resident theater company at the
Spa Little Theater in Saratoga Spa State Park opens their 34th season with
Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein. The show runs weekends October 13th through
the 28th.

            From the creators of the Broadway sensation The Producers, Young
Frankenstein, with book by Mel Brooks and Thomas Meehan, and music and
lyrics by Mel Brooks, is an adaptation of the legendarily funny film of the
same name. Follow Frederick Frankenstein as he tries to fill the mad
scientist shoes of his infamous grandfather, Victor. This musical comedy
sews together the wit and humor of the screen sensation with the flair of
live theater.

            The Director of Young Frankenstein is Dawn Oesch, who directed
last Spring’s very popular Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. She
has also directed Shrek the Musical and The Drowsy Chaperone at HMT. The
artistic team includes Musical Director Richard Cherry, Choreographer
Arlette St. Romain, Scenic Designer Mary Fran Hughes, Lighting Designer
Stephanie Van Sandt, Costume Designer Sherry Recinella, Sound Designers Tom
Moeller and Barry Streifert, and Properties Designer Christina Toppin.

            The cast of Young Frankenstein includes Adrian J. Appleman as
the Monster, Mike Bellotti as Frederick Frankenstein, Michael Durington as
the Hermit, Brittany Leigh Glenn as Elizabeth Benning, Melissa Mason Lacijan
as Frau Blücher, Kevin O’Toole as Igor, Eric Rudy as Inspector Hans Kemp and
Dr. Victor Von Frankenstein, and Kelly Sienkiewicz as Inga. The cast is
rounded out by an ensemble of an additional 13 performers.

            Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm, October 13,
19, 20, 26 and 27. Matinees are on Sundays at 2:00pm, October 14, 21 and 28.
An optional dinner package is available at Longfellows Restaurant prior to
