MONSTERS, MAYHEM & MARACAS!!! Mary Shelley’s 1818 literary masterpiece, “Frankenstein,” undergoes an entirely new comedic interpretation as a live 21st-century podcast in this “hilarious and brilliant” new play from award-winning international playwrights and Escape 2 Create Alums, Nicholas Collett and Gavin Robertson, along with the talents of The REP’s very own Brook Stetler.  

For over a century, the story of Dr. Frankenstein and his famous monster has inspired countless books, films, television programs, and even Broadway musicals! But never before has this story been told by just three actors playing all the characters while making their own sound effects in front of a live studio audience in a theatrical podcast event in 3D!

What the heck is a 3D Podcast? Think of it as a live theatrical radio play for the 21st century that’s meant to be seen, not heard. Be a part of the live studio audience! No special 3D glasses, headphones, or apps are required! All you need is a ticket for your seat, but you’ll only use the edge! The Fall Play Series is generously sponsored by the Seaside Merchants.
