 Monsters, music and comedy are all brought together through the latest production from the Brainerd Community Theater. For this week's In Focus, our Sarah Winkelman takes us to the stage for Young Frankenstein The Musical. Based on the 1974 film, Young Frankenstein The Musical is all about the backstory. Frederick Frankenstein, who is the last living relative or last living descendant of the Frankensteins, inherits Frankenstein Castle. He goes there to see what it's all about and ends up being drawn into recreating in his grandfather's footsteps making monsters. Just as a lot goes into making a monster, a lot of work also goes into putting together this beast of a show. It's been a very long and difficult process because it's such a complex show. But the director says the cast made his job easy. The show has been probably one of the best experiences I've had in the lakes area. I've done a lot of community theater around and this show is just fun from top to bottom. The box office at Central Lakes College has been full of people as the first three shows for Young Frankenstein were all sold out. When you put a whole bunch of time and effort into something, it's important that people come and see it. You want people to see your work. A show that is very special for the Pitt Orchestra director, who after 27 years of dedication will be retiring, making Young Frankenstein his last production. We were looking for something just crazy enough to put a cap on it and Young Frankenstein came up and it's perfect. Leaving a perfect combination of crazy and fun. My favorite part is rolling the hay, which is just a super silly song. These folks are not only on their toes with their lines, they are funny. They are flat out funny. Those on stage, behind the scenes and out in the audience created lasting memories for the Brainerd Community Theater. I think what we thought all along came true that with the talent that we had and with the material that this play is about, that it would be a success and it surely has been.
