Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
By Rona Munro
Directed by Andrea Kennedy Hart
A bold and haunting adaptation of Mary Shelley’s iconic novel, this play explores the dark depths of ambition, creation, and what it means to be human. Rona Munro's 'inventive feminist adaptation' (The Stage) of Mary Shelley's Gothic masterpiece places the writer herself amongst the action as she wrestles with her creation and with the stark realities facing revolutionary young women, then and now.
