Directed by Danny Boyle, Frankenstein was a sell-out at the National Theatre last year and went on to win the 2012 Olivier Award for Best Actor for Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller. 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 cruelty wherever he goes, the friendless, desperate and vengeful creature 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 in this thrilling and disturbing gothic tale.
