In the organizer's words:

freely adapted from Mary Shelley
A theater project with actors from the Am Hafen district school

What happens when a young scientist wants to play God and creates a human-like being? And implants a real heart in it. When he brings it to life, it has a soul. But his creature is rejected by the real people. Mocked as a "monster" that doesn't even have a real name, it nevertheless seeks its place in the world, wants to live, simply wants to belong.

In her new theater project with 15 pupils from the Am Hafen district school, director Dania Hohmann stages "Frankenstein" as a parable about our fears of the "strange", the "new", the "unknown". And examines the question: who actually decides what is normal and what is not? Because perhaps the "monster" is much closer to us than we think ...
