FRANKENSTEIN AT CAMBRIDGE ARTS THEATRE
Inspired by Mary Shelley’s iconic story, Frankenstein is coming to Cambridge Arts Theatre from 3 to 7 October. The adaptation, written and directed by Séan Aydon, follows Victoria Frankenstein (Eleanor McLoughlin) and Richter (Basienka Blake) in World War II-ravaged Europe, when Frankenstein reveals she created a monster. This reimagined take on a classic tale promises to both chill and excite audiences. Frankenstein also stars Cameron Robertson as The Creature, Dale Mathurin as Henry and Lula Marsh as Elizabeth. The cast’s collective credits include The Mousetrap on the West End, Oleanna at Theatre Royal Bath and Evita at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre. The performance benefits from Nicky Bunch’s production design, Matt Haskins’ lighting design and an original score from Eammon O’Dwyer. Frankenstein will enjoy a lengthy UK theatre tour with 11 stops, including Cambridge, York and Keswick. Get tickets at cambridgeartstheatre.com/whats-on/frankenstein
