From the legacy of the writer who helped define the golden age of cinematic terror, Garrett Fort (screenwriter for the iconic 1931 Frankenstein film), comes this powerful and definitive stage version of Mary Shelley's masterwork.
Frankenstein - The Man and the Monster is a potent theatrical adaptation that delves into the dual tragedy at the heart of the original novel. The script focuses intensely on the moral hubris of Victor Frankenstein (The Man) and the heartbreaking agony of his isolated creation (The Monster). Fort's adaptation strips the story bare, focusing on the terrible pact between creator and created and the inescapable consequences of playing God.
This stage play is an essential script for actors, students, and fans of Gothic drama and classic horror. It allows the reader to experience the dark, emotional intensity of the Frankenstein legend as it was envisioned for the intimate and unforgiving space of the theatre.
