Puttin' on the Ritz!

One of the most eagerly awaited shows heading towards Broadway is the adaptation of the Mel Brooks comedy, Young Frankenstein. It'll be a while before most of us can see it, but the show is on stage in Seattle, working out the rough edges - and you read a review of that show by visiting Mark Evanier's "News From ME" website.

But be warned: the review gives away some of the gags from the show. Of course, if you know the movie by heart (like a certain blog writer I could name), you can already recite the lines right along with the cast. Being a big fan of Mr. Brooks (well, most of his work), I'm really looking forward to seeing this show.
