Graduation Show 2013
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
Adapted for the Stage by Nick Dear
This years Graduation show is Mary Shelley's Frankenstein adapted for the stage by Nick Dear. All I ask is the possibility of love! 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, and increasingly desperate and vengeful, he determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal. I followed nature into her lair, and stripped her of her secrets! I brought torrents of light to a darkening world! Is that wrong? Urgent concerns of scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the nature of good evil are embedded within this thrilling and deeply disturbing classic gothic tale.
