Musical!

And I am finally home after dinner following the first performance of "Young Frankenstein" over at Maine West. The show was *very* nicely done. It's been long enough since I saw the show in previews here in Chicago that I can't say what of the book/songs has been changed since (other than some light bowdlerization for the high school audience). But it was a lot of fun!

A stage performance of Young Frankenstein which I once saw included a bit which would be very inappropriate for a high school production. (Or maybe not anymore; standards have changed in ways I don't understand.) It involved clothing being tossed onto the stage.

The only clothing tossed onto the stage was Frankenstein's jacket. Everything else was left to the imagination.

The drama instructor has been very careful about exactly how he's bowdlerized the musical, which I think is a good choice on his part. Annoys K though...
