Who’s ready for a Roll in the Hay, or at least prepared to see Avon Players’ production of Young Frankenstein? This musical adaptation of the classic Mel Brooks film is ready to make audiences roar with laughter! Being the last show from Avon Players’ 2024-2025 season, the cast and crew are looking to go out with a bang, with The Mel Brooks Musical: Young Frankenstein being the perfect production to do so! Ahead of its premiere, co-hosts Brian Kitson and RJ Miller-Zelinko spoke with Emily Brown, who plays Igna in this Rochester, MI production!

In this exclusive Box Seat Babes interview, Emily Brown discusses her time in this production and what it’s like bringing a character such as Igna to life! Who exactly is Igna, and how does she factor into the story? What’s Brown’s favorite number to perform? What themes from Young Frankenstein speak the most to her? What has challenged her the most about this role and working with this community theater on this production? And why does she need so much stamina to perform this iconic role? If you weren’t already excited for what’s to come in Young Frankenstein, you will be after listening to this exciting interview!
