A new play, set in 1816, the year without summer, at the home of Lord Byron, where the poet is joined by an intimate circle consisting of Percy Shelley, his wife Mary Shelley, her sister Claire, and Byrons personal doctor John Polidori. During their confinement in this Swiss mansion, the characters massive emotions and intellects collide to produce legendary poetry, literature, conflict, catharsis, and discovery.

From company members that brought BUTCHER HOLLER HERE WE COME, MY AIM IS TRUE, HELPLESS DOORKNOBS, and THE OTHER MOZART to New Orleans and whose work has been described by the New York Times as "wrenching and visually eloquent", "darkly humorous", and "deliciously ghoulish" is an immersive ghost story about the conception of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley.

The cast features: Adam Belvo (NYIT Award nominated actor), Tyler Downey, Sara Fellini ("the voice of a crystal bell. Fellini is magnificent" -NOLA Defender), Linnea Larsdotter (winner Best Actress - NYLA international independent film festival), and Ian Petersen.

Sound designer Andy Evan Cohen takes modern music and turns it into a haunting and otherworldly score for this terrifying story of love, lust, and the horror of creation.
