Description

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein by Rona Munro is an inventive feminist adaptation of Mary Shelley's Gothic masterpiece. In this version, the writer herself takes centre stage as she wrestles with her creation and grapples with the stark realities facing revolutionary young women. The story follows a young scientist who breathes life into a gruesome body, only to be banished into an indifferent world. The creature, desperate for its true identity, embarks on a ferocious hunt for its maker, threatening those he loves in the process. This powerful and thought-provoking adaptation places the writer at the heart of the action. Premiering on a UK tour in 2019, this book offers a fresh perspective on a story that continues to captivate audiences today.
