Richard Campbell's intense and dramatic score recounts the tale of a man whose diabolical ambition leads him to a life of torment and guilt, and a creature made monster by abandonment and prejudice. Orpheus Studio Productions and The Lansbury Players present a staged adaptation of Richard Campbell's progressive rock concept album Frankenstein, a thrilling musical portrayal of the original sci-fi horror. Experience the story that pioneered the horror genre as we know it, in a perfect Hallowe'en evening of spine-chilling spectacle and hair-raising riffs!
