Roger Bart, Sutton Foster, Shuler Hensley, Christopher Fitzgerald and the cast of the new Mel Brooks musical Young Frankenstein will perform three musical numbers on NBC's The Today Show on Oct. 31.



Just in time for Halloween, between 8:30 and 10 AM (ET), the company will perform the show's "Transylvania Mania," "Together Again," and "Roll in the Hay."

Roger Bart, troubled by a recent back injury, missed more than a week of performances as Frederick Frankenstein, but returned to the show at the Hilton Theatre Oct. 29.

The musical comedy based on the hit film of the same name opens Nov. 8. Susan Stroman directs and choreographs.
