Dare to join us on Wednesday 23 May and explore Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, an epic thriller brought to life through immersive performances, talks, workshops and activities.

Listen to chilling ghost stories by candlelight as you tread carefully through Victor Frankenstein’s lab, learn about the scientific and medical innovations of the period, and play with a historical vampire slaying kit from the 19th-century. Listen to a live musical performance inspired by James Whales’ 1931 adaptation of Frankenstein, and learn about how Shelley’s Frankenstein has inspired popular culture since its publication in 1818.

You can also create your own monsters, learn about developments in electricity and re-animation, look at surgical tools from the period, and experience an electrifyingly poetic beatbox adaptation of the book from the Battersea Arts Centre’s BAC Beatbox Academy. Gothic galore and creativity abound in this spectacular reimagining of Shelley’s monstrous tale.
