  3. Frankenstein


An electrifying tale of life, love, and identity.

Based on the world's most famous work of horror fiction, Mary Shelley's 19th-century novel-turned-pop culture classic, Liam Scarlett's critically acclaimed interpretation is one of the most innovative works of dance today.

A gothic masterpiece set in the dawn of modern science, Frankenstein takes the audience on a captivating journey through scientist Victor Frankenstein’s ambitious plan to animate a patchwork of lifeless body parts, setting in motion a detrimental chain of fateful events.

This captivating production offers a visceral, emotionally charged journey into life, death, love, and identity, set to an original sweeping score by Lowell Liebermann and immersed within the striking stage design by world-renowned ballet and opera artist John Macfarlane.

See the Creature come to life in this must-see SoCal premiere!
