ABOUT THE PLAY

An eighteen year old girl, Mary Shelley, dreams up a monster whose tragic story will capture the imagination of generations to come.

A young scientist by the name of Frankenstein breathes life into a gruesome body. Banished into an indifferent world, Frankenstein’s creature desperately seeks out his true identity, but the agony of rejection and a broken promise push him into darkness. Dangerous and vengeful, the creature threatens to obliterate Frankenstein and everyone he loves, in a ferocious and bloodthirsty hunt for his maker.

Rona Munro’s brilliantly inventive adaptation of Mary Shelley’s 1818 Gothic masterpiece places the writer herself amongst the action as she wrestles with her creation.

Please note: this production contains scenes of moderate horror, moments of violence, and themes some audience members may find distressing.
