West End star Dianne Pilkington stopped by to chat to Nicky Sweetland about starring in Young Frankenstein and the newly released live cast recording.

You can watch the full interview here:

Dianne Pilkington is something of a legend in West End circles having played some of the most sought after roles in some of the biggest shows including Fantine in Les Miserables, Glinda in Wicked and Donna in MAMMA MIA!.

Legendary filmmaker and comedian Mel Brooks (The Producers, Blazing Saddles) brings his iconic monster musical comedy Young Frankenstein to life on stage in an all-singing, all-dancing, all-laughing musical collaboration with Tony-award winning Broadway director and choreographer Susan Stroman.

Dr. Frederick Frankenstein (Hadley Fraser) – pronounced ‘Fronk-en-steen’ – inherits a castle in Transylvania leading him to fulfil his grandfather’s legacy by bringing a corpse back to life. With help and hindrance from hunchback henchman Igor, housekeeper Frau Blucher (Lesley Joseph) & buxom assistant Inga (Summer Strallen), his experiment yields madcap success and monstrous consequences. You’ll be puttin’ on the ritz and reeling in the aisles at the funniest show in town!

You’ve only got two weeks left to catch Dianne in Young Frankenstein and you can get your tickets here.
