Auditions for Musical "Young Frankenstein"
Looking to cast performers for the "Young Frankenstein" show. For more information see the details listed below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: Grandson of the infamous Victor Frankenstein, Frederick Frankenstein (pronounced “Fronk-en-steen”) inherits his family’s estate in Transylvania. With the help of a hunchbacked sidekick, Igor (pronounced “Eye-gore”), and a leggy lab assistant, Inga (pronounced normally), Frederick finds himself in the mad scientist shoes of his ancestors. “It’s alive!” he exclaims as he brings to life a creature to rival his grandfather’s.
