Beschreibung
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, the friendless Creature, increasingly desperate and vengeful, determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal.
Urgent concerns of scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the nature of good and evil are embedded within this thrilling and deeply disturbing classic gothic tale.
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, adapted for the stage by Nick Dear, premiered at the National Theatre, London, in February 2011.

I had to read it for my English class. As a reader of the original Frankenstein, I definitely prefer Shelleys’, especially since it really delved deep into Victors’ madness and the characters felt way more alive than here, but you also have to note that it’s a stage play, a short one at that.So for this length it still was enjoyable.
