The Monster and Mary Shelley

A contemporary voyage into the life of Mary Shelley – the Gothic Girl who electrified the world!

About The Monster and Mary Shelley

Sorry, but this event has been and gone!

June 1816: the year without a summer. Mary Shelley is 18 and has just lost her premature baby daughter, when she has a ‘waking dream’ and is inspired to write the story that will define her life – Frankenstein. Moving, darkly funny and atmospheric, this show has touches of melodrama, horror and teenage rebellion as it explores the life of Mary Shelley – the Gothic Girl who electrified the world.

Age 12+

While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for The Monster and Mary Shelley are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment.
