“Young Frankenstein” to Run July 25-27

Performances will take place in the Severns Theatre in Ophelia Parrish at 7 p.m. July 25-27, with a matinee at 2 p.m. July 27.
Based on the 1974 comedy film of the same name, “Young Frankenstein” follows Frederick Frankenstein – grandson of the infamous monster creator Victor Frankenstein – after he inherits his family’s estate in Transylvania. With the help of a hunchbacked sidekick, Igor, and a leggy lab assistant, Inga, Frederick finds himself in the mad scientist shoes of his ancestors.
