Frankenstein @ Gardens Theatre

26 July 2013

Forced to survive in the real world, a man-made creature soon loses his child-like innocence and transforms into an adult being . . . an adult with bitterness, lust, vengeance - and deadly reasoning.

The Creature is cast out by his creator, the young doctor Frankenstein, and unleashed upon the world.

He is shunned for his grotesque appearance and spurned by society wherever he goes.

When a blind man takes Frankenstein's monstrous creation under his wing and educates him, the Creature begins to question his existence and to yearn for a future without loneliness.

His search for a lifelong partner brings him back to his maker, with vengeance foremost in his mind.

Frankenstein is directed by Mark Kilmurry and stars Katie Fitchett, Andrew Henry, Lee Jones, Brian Meegan, Michael Rebetzke, Michael Ross and Olivia Stambouliah.
