About the Show

Nick Dear’s Frankenstein is a gripping adaptation of the famous story of horror, psychology and philosophy.

The play shifts the focus to the Creature, from his horrific birth to his desperate search for connection in a world that fears him. As he observes human interactions and acquires the power of language and thought, the creature’s innocence is shattered, leading to a dramatic confrontation with his creator, Victor Frankenstein. An electrifying tale of a living creature cast away by his creator into a hostile world, Frankenstein explores identity, rejection, and what it means to be human—issues as relevant among the technological and ethical dilemmas of today as they were when Mary Shelley wrote her famous novel more than 200 years ago.
