Mary Shelley's classic comes to life on stage in a production directed by Sigrid Johannesen, with set design by Ida Grarup. A scientist stands before his audience, determined to conquer death, but his story begins to crack. Who is really speaking, and whose body lies at his feet?
The play explores humanity's hubris and what happens when the things we create turn against us. It is a story about technology and humanism, and a sharp critique of the relationship between people and nature. It also mirrors today's dilemma: we rush into technological progress to solve crises we have created ourselves, and the production asks whether there are other realistic options than believing humanity must master nature.
Patrick Baurichter leads the cast as the headline performer.
