Nick Dear, adapted from the novel by Mary Shelley
Childlike in his innocence but grotesque in form, Frankenstein’s bewildered creature is cast out into a hostile universe by his horror-struck maker. Meeting with cruelty wherever he goes, the friendless Creature, increasingly desperate and vengeful, determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal.
The urgent concerns of scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the balance between good and evil are embedded within this thrilling and deeply disturbing classic gothic tale.
