FRANKENSTEIN: Adapted by Alexander Utz from Mary Shelley's classic tale

In this retelling of Mary Shelley's classic Gothic horror story, the focus is not on the folly of man's desire to create life, but rather on the ability of society to cast out and condemn an individual. Interwoven with elements of Shelley's own life and the origin of the Frankenstein legend, the play is an exploration of how the monsters we conjure are not always as inhuman as they seem.

Adapted by Ensemble Member Alexander Utz
Directed by Artistic Director Bec Willett
