INDIANAPOLIS — Follow along as Mary Shelley stitches together her grisly Gothic tale and learn who the real villain of this story is. Victor Frankenstein’s terrifying creation will thrill and enthrall as this classic novel adaptation experiments with love, grief, horror, and the power to create — or destroy — life.
Directed by Risa Brainin, the characters in this production include Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Godwin, and the Creature. Considered the first science fiction novel ever written, the tale of Frankenstein has been adapted for stage, screen, and television, and inspired many other horror and science fiction cautionary tales about technology run amok.
