2024 has a lot of exciting projects coming!
Lightbooth Blackout, in partnership with Lone Brick Theatre Company, debut’s a contemporary and surprising adaptation of Mary Shelley’s classic tale of horror FRANKENSTEIN, adapted and directed by Dave Ebersole. This fresh reimagination will be staged in the historic Lathem Hall on Widener University’s campus for a limited engagement from October 10-20.
Victor Frankenstein, a scientist driven by ambition and lust for knowledge, has become obsessed with creating life from the assembled parts of dead men. But when he finally succeeds, Victor is horrified by the results. Unable to flee from his new “Creation", Victor must choose whether to accept his life’s work or risk its vengeance; a choice that threatens to reveal the true legacy of horror that comes with the name FRANKENSTEIN.
This production fuses Shelley’s original text, pop culture, and early staged adaptations to create a minimalist reimagining, rich with original music played live throughout by composer Mick Loro. This new adaptation thrusts the eternal question of this classic story front and center to audiences: who is the true monster, the creation or creator?
STARRING: Thomas-Robert Irvin, Nolan Maher, Britt Fauzer, Carlos Jiga, Walter McCready, and Stacy Skinner
FRANKENSTEIN will be performed at Lathem Hall 1301 Potter St, Chester, PA 19013
