Mel's Monster

I've been curious about the financial fate of Young Frankenstein, the Mel Brooks musical. I saw the show last November and enjoyed it but apparently a fair amount of theatergoers haven't liked it and many who might have attended haven't gone. Tepid reviews are one reason but according to this article, a lot of folks have been scared off by high prices. The prices are no longer high and there are now TV commercials that emphasize the point…but audiences still don't seem to be flocking to it.
