The production based on the cult novel by Mary Shelley places emphasis on the duality of the creator and the progeny, woman and man, life and death. It also asks itself a question about whether a human being is rather shaped by genetic background, or environment. Welcome to a wedding reception during which it turns out more and more clearly that Viktor Frankenstein and his fiancée Elisabeth will lead a happy life only after their death. Uniting theatrical and cinematic languages, the play relates creation: three actors try to bring matter to live, giving objects unprecedented meanings. A two-headed band accompanies their endeavour.
