Chums

Those worried about Mel Brooks, 91, cavorting around the UK with a new go at Young Frankenstein: The Musical (first on Broadway in 2007), will be re-assured to know that Young Alan Yentob is with him.

Last night the show opened at the Theatre Royal Newcastle (the first complete run-through, according to director Susan Stroman). Mel thanked the cast at the end, and took part in the encore. Comedian Ross Noble is cast in the Marty Feldman role as Igor, and the troupe head to the Garrick in the West End for a long run after a week in the North East.
