Young Frankenstein.

Directed by Luay Eljamal        

March 6-9, 2013 — University of Alberta — Edmonton, Canada

In November of 2012, I was hired to direct the University of Alberta's first Campus Musical Dinner Theatre. Working alongside choreographer Cara Chong, and Vocal Director Miranda Marks, we lead a team of 29 actors and 18 crew members towards putting on a production of Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein. The Campus Musical was a new Student’s Union initiative that went up from March 6 - 9, 2014. Our goal was to give all students from any faculty on the University of Alberta campus an opportunity to express themselves through the theatrical arts.
