Laguna Blanca School Bringing Young Frankenstein to Life

Mel Brooks’ Scariest Musical Comedy of All Time

IT’S ALIVE! Laguna Blanca School presents Mel Brooks’ musical comedy classic Young Frankenstein, the wickedly inspired re-imagining of the Frankenstein legend, brought to life by a cast of witty characters performed by the talented Laguna Blanca Upper School students on April 23 - 25. Young Frankenstein is a theatrical production of monstrously good entertainment for musical lovers of all ages, delivering all your favorite show-stopping tunes with absurd hilarity. 

Young Frankenstein follows the bright young Dr. Frankenstein as he attempts to complete his grandfather’s masterpiece and bring a corpse to life. Together with his oddly shaped and endearing helper Igor, his curvaceous lab assistant Inga, and his narcissistic madcap fiancé Elizabeth, Dr. Frankenstein succeeds in creating a monster – however not without some creepy and often hilarious complications.

Director Kate Bergstrom, the School’s head of the Drama Department, leads an incredibly talented production team of students, faculty, family and friends, including Assistant Director and Costumer Designer Dana Ortner, Technical Head and Lighting Designer Conner Warren, Stage Manager Zoe Levy, Music Director Ben Saunders, and Choreographer Jessica Hambright.
