Comedy by Sebastian Seidel
"Prepare, then, to hear of events which are relegated to the realm of the marvelous." Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
Two actors dare to tackle Mary Shelley's famous material, which seems more topical than ever: the story of Doctor Frankenstein, who creates his own creature that becomes a dangerous monster for lack of love.
Of course, the two approach the realization in very different ways. While the conscientious game master wonders whether we will lose control to artificially intelligent robots in the future, his naive sidekick is thinking more about the film version of the story, the series and, above all, musicals. And who wants to portray this ugly monster anyway? The result is a turbulent comedy about love, monsters and the threat of death.
Mary Shelley's work was voted one of the most important British novels by 82 international literary critics and scholars in 2015.
