Young Frankenstein

Frank-ophiles will find this musical version of Mel Brooks’ classic comedy fun and filled with bits of frivolity. Audience members familiar with the film’s famous funny lines and wacky characters will laugh, but frankly, the show feels forced and falls flat between the anticipated bits. But the cast was enthusiastic and the sets were cool! T, W 8pm; Th 2pm & 8pm; F 8pm; Sa 2pm & 8pm; Su 2pm & 7:30pm. Through 4/24. $18-$75. Broadway Sacramento at the Community Center Theater, 1301 L St.; (916) 557-1999 or (916) 808-5181; www.californiamusicaltheatre.com.
