FRANKENSTEIN from National Theatre - Alternate Version

FRANKENSTEIN, a new play by Nick Dear, based on the novel by Mary Shelley, directed by Danny Boyle. This astonishing production comes direct from London, where it sold out before it opened at the National Theatre. Onscreen at the Lark by satellite.

Playing with the notion of the divided self, Boyle has the two lead actors swap roles for each performance. This is the alternate version from the one we've already show, and features Jonny Lee Miller as the Creature and Benedict Cumberbatch as Dr. Frankenstein.

All I ask is the possibility of love!
