A new, one-man play faithfully adapted from Mary Shelley’s classic 1818 novel of Gothic horror.
THE STORY: London, 1799.  Having returned to England after a failed sea expedition to the North Pole, Capt. Robert Walton is entreated to describe his strange encounter with Victor Frankenstein, a young science student whom he had rescued after finding him nearly frozen and traveling by a dog-drawn sled across the ice.  Walton then recounts Frankenstein’s own fantastic tale of a monster he had fashioned from the parts of stolen corpses -- only to reject, then pursue his creation across Europe into the Arctic hinterlands of Russia, vowing to destroy it…or die in the trying.

A must-see for Frankenstein enthusiasts and fans of mystery and horror.  One  actor. One hour.  Suitable for adults and for children (ages 12 and over).  Perfect for the Halloween season!  Written & performed by Greg Oliver Bodine.  Directed by DeLisa M. White.  

This performance will take place next to the library at the Church on the Square, 1025 S Potomac St, Baltimore, MD 21224. Sponsored by the Friends of the Canton Library.
