Dr Frank
About
Inspired by Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, this play brings her characters to the modern day.
Elizabeth has recently started working for the charming and debonair Dr Frank. When the mysterious Justine appears, everything Elizabeth thought she knew about “the good doctor” begins to unravel. Meanwhile, Dr Frank stumbles upon a miracle - the woman of his dreams made flesh. As the two get closer, Dr Frank begins to realise this woman may not be the perfect creature he designed.
As Elizabeth and Justine uncover the truth about Dr Frank’s past, the danger they are in becomes all too clear.
In a world of imbalance and hubris, creation and destruction, the question at the core of Shelley’s book remains: who is really in control?
