It will return to cinemas worldwide from June for a limited season of encore screenings. 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. Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is adapted for the stage by Nick Dear and realized by Danny Boyle in his return to the theatre after winning the Academy Award for best director for Slumdog Millionaire. Urgent concerns of scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the nature of good and evil are embedded within this thrilling and deeply disturbing classic gothic tale. (Approximately 2.5 hours w/intermission) |
