★★★★★ “(…) ultimately good theatre should make you think, and this production of ‘Frankenstein’ is
compellingly thought-provoking throughout (…)” – CPHPost
“Frankenstein er blevet en tankevækkende forestilling, der angriber sin tilskuer med eksistensens voldsomme spænd af modsatrettede følelser” – Information
“Og så er der oplevelser som FRANKENSTEIN, der er betagende teaterrejser, hvor alting går op, og hvor jeg næsten er bange for at rejse mig bagefter, fordi jeg frygter at forstyrre det smukke, jeg har oplevet.” – Michael Svennevig
“Det er noget af et kunststykke på en gang at føre Mary
Wollstonecraft Shelleys Frankenstein op til vor tid (og måske et stykke ind i fremtiden) og
samtidig være tro mod strukturen og budskabet i romanen. Det lykkes på Teatret ved Sorte
Hest.” – POV International
A new, thought-provoking play based on Mary Shelley’s gothic tale about human nature, technology and longing for love, companionship and acceptance.
Reumert award-winning writer, Tanja Mastilo, transforms Shelley’s classic Frankenstein into a gripping, dystopian drama where flawless beauty is the standard and the Creature becomes one of the most reviled monsters: the older woman. How did she become so threatening? Can she reconcile with her creator and the world that rejects her?
After months of shame and denial Doctor Frankenstein is forced to face her biggest fear, the Creature she created, and find an answer to the question: who is the real monster?
