FRANKENSTEIN
"THIS IS YOUR UNIVERSE."
Forget everything you think you know about FRANKENSTEIN in this modern stage adaptation of the classic story.
FRANKENSTEIN tells the story of scientist Victor Frankenstein who creates a living Creature in a bizarre scientific experiment. Horrified by his own creation Victor abandons the newly born Creature. Shunned by its creator and cast out from society, the Creature then has to learn to make its way in the world alone, which takes it on a journey across the landscape and across the human soul as it learns and grows and exercises free will...but not always for good. Eventually both Victor and the Creature meet again as an ultimatum threatens to tear Victor's universe apart.
Originally titled "Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus" this story tackles complex themes of creation, love, society, and the horrors mankind can sow when we begin to "play God" and meddle with the natural order.
With a fresh interpretation, modern set, and a cast of 20 students, this is one play you will want to see before it's gone.
