TOO OLD FOR ‘YOUNG’: Actress Cloris Leachman won’t be getting her “little moment” in the Broadway production of “Young Frankenstein,” despite her vigorous attempts at securing the role she made famous in the film version. Leachman, 81, is reportedly “heartbroken” over being told that she’s “too old” to play the part of Frau Blucher in the Mel Brooks production, reports . Broadway insiders reportedly told PAGE SIX that Leachman had a “wonderful audition . . . She was involved in a workshop recently and everyone loved her . . . but it was obvious she was too old” to perform eight shows a week. Brooks reportedly told columnist Army Archerd, “We’re afraid the show might stop her - it could kill her . . . We don’t want her to die on stage.” In a statement to PAGE SIX, Leachman’s rep reportedly said, “Cloris challenges Mel to three rounds in the ring, and we’ll see who’s left standing.” “Young Frankenstein,” scheduled to debut in October, also stars Megan Mullally, Roger Bart, and “SCTV” vet Andrea Martin as Frau Blucher.
