Written during the industrial revolution, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s Frankenstein is an allegory of the dangers of science, of upsetting the natural order, and of the dangerous possibilities of technology and ambition.

This Frankenstein is an experiment gone wrong. Starting from scratch every night, a troupe of theatre makers build the story of the building of a monster. Pieced together from found objects, odds, ends, scraps of text and songs, things start to get out of control as the monster gradually takes over the Wharf 2 theatre.

Award-winning designer Ralph Myers, in his directorial debut, grapples with the creation of horror and the horror of creation.
