Kid Frankenstein

See it if you have kids who'd not only enjoy a fun show, but could also learn a few things about self-esteem, bullying, letting go and saying goodbye.

Don't see it if you don't have kids (or nieces/nephews). Good ensemble, fast-moving show, great little theater on the UWS. Perfect theme for Halloween week.

Also High-energy on closing day!

Very meaningful lyrics, some cute music. Audience kids ranging from 3-10 were totally into the humor, too. The audience was also sprinkled with young cast (20s-30s?) members' friends, cheering them on. Perfect.

Cast stayed afterwards for pics and autographs. Awesome for bright-eyed kids. Whole experience made for a great afternoon.... Read more Read less

See it if you enjoy clever, light-hearted family shows with a spooky theme; enjoy good singing

Don't see it if you want something serious, not family oriented

See it if you like shows put a new spin on a classic tale.

Don't see it if you don't like shows that use classic Halloween characters in a new way to teach a lesson.

See it if you don't mind a funny kid-friendly take on the classic tale, yet w/some lessons to spare- by a young talented cast taking on multiple roles

Don't see it if you either don't have a kid to bring to or if going solo- you feel you're too old to appreciate such shows. But the kid-in-us will like it!

Also The young cast delivers their roles with much enthusiasm and life, that the show was like a live TV kiddie program. They really meant to please ...during the show and even after the show with the autograph table set up for signing and picture taking with the cast for the kids' total theater experience.... Read more Read less

See it if you have children (skews slightly older for kids' theater) who can appreciate sober themes in a goofy, creative adaptation with peppy songs.

Don't see it if a parental death (offstage, before the action) seems too intense a subject for your kids, or if you're an adult with no sense of whimsy

See it if You want a family friendly show with great music, laughter and a message

Don't see it if You are looking for grand staging

See it if You like Freibkenstein & have young children; my twins woke up singing one of the songs!

Don't see it if Don't like Halloween. Who doesn't!?

See it if you are under the age of 10 and enjoy science fiction.

Don't see it if cheesy shows are not your thing.

See it if It was a fun and uplifting show for kids and adults alike.

Don't see it if You're not into spooky and funny shows.

See it if you like witty twists on familiar themes, with good humor, writing, acting and GREAT singing (Jocelyn Lonquist is a particular standout!).

Don't see it if you're looking for a typical Broadway-type experience. This is more of a light-hearted, yet highly relevant take on a familiar story gone aw

Also Yes, it's aimed at a family level, but we saw it as two adults and loved it. Just good fun throughout. But if you do go with children, there's a lot of good, mature stuff in there about fitting in, loss and dealing with some of the challenges that most young people have to deal with - whether boys or girls.... Read more Read less

See it if You want a clever story and excellent acting and singing. Jocelyn Lonquist's voice lifts above the others and floats beautifully.

Don't see it if You are stiff and wooden and don't appreciated a good show, song and dance.
