Monsters of the Villa Diodati

From the creative team that brought you last season’s critically acclaimed The Turn of the Screw, comes an electrifying musical premiere! While a storm was brewing outside their villa on Lake Geneva, the famous writers inside entertained one another with ghost stories. Lord Byron, their host, offered a challenge: produce the perfect tale of terror before the night ends. Conner and Smith’s “bold new work” explores the nature of creativity itself, and reveals to us the inner demons that materialized in two of the most iconic monsters in Gothic literature: John Polidori’s The Vampyre and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein.
