April 17, 2014

Students rehearse “Young Frankenstein,” the School of Medicine’s ninth annual student musical, in the Olin Hall gym on the Washington University Medical Campus. Pictured is the monster, played by MSTP student Runjun Kumar, erupting and provoking a mix of reactions. The musical, which is entirely student-run, involves some 50 medical, occupational therapy, audiology, biostatistics and biomedical PhD students. Performances will be at 7:30 p.m. April 24, 25 and 26 in Whelpley Auditorium at the St. Louis College of Pharmacy, which abuts the Medical Campus. Tickets for students are $8 in advance or $12 at the door. General admission is $13 in advance or $16 at the door. Tickets for St. Louis College of Pharmacy students, faculty and staff are $5. Tickets can be purchased from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. weekdays in the Farrell Learning and Teaching Center atrium; from 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. weekdays in the McDonnell Medical Sciences Building, Room 100, or by emailing Keith Jacobs at kmjacobs@wustl.edu.
