The Creature that Dr. Frankenstein produces, an assemblage of disparate elements, coalesces into a monster with a human soul. His horrific appearance conceals the gentlest heart. Through no fault of his own, he is forced to descend into evil deeds. Excerpts from the 1818 edition of Frankenstein, music, and dance interwoven with Mary Shelley鈥檚 letters and diaries create parallel narratives as both dramas unfold. Featuring Bach-inspired music of the 19th century, from Liszt, Schubert and Bach. </td> </tr> </table> </div></div> <table style="margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 100%"> <tr> <td style="margin: 0; padding: 0"> <div class="iobdb-frame" style="border-radius:13px; box-shadow:10px 10px 5px #CCCCCC"> <div class="iobdb-legend" style="border-radius:25px; background-color:rgb(0,0,156)"> <span id="Opening Night Credits">Opening Night Credits</span> <h2 hidden>Opening Night Credits</h2> </div><div class="iobdb-body" > <br/><div style="background-color:#ABABAB; color:white; padding-left:8px; font-weight:bold; border-radius:25px">Production Credits</div> <table style="width:100%"> <tr> <th style="width:1%"></th> <th>Person/Company</th> <th>Credit</th> </tr> <tr style="border-top: 1px solid #f5f5f5"> <td> </td> <td> <a href="/CreditableEntity/49246" style="text-decoration:none; color:rgb(151,0,51)" title="Has 5 credits">Ensemble for the Romantic Century</a> </td> <td> Producer </td> </tr> <tr style="border-top: 1px solid #f5f5f5"><td> </td><td> </td></tr> <tr style="border-top: 1px solid #f5f5f5"> <td> </td> <td> <a href="/CreditableEntity/3411" style="text-decoration:none; color:rgb(151,0,51)" title="Has 6 credits">Mary Shelley</a> </td> <td> Book </td> </tr> <tr style="border-top: 1px solid #f5f5f5"> <td> </td> <td> <a href="/CreditableEntity/49247" style="text-decoration:none; color:rgb(151,0,51)" title="Has 4 credits">Eve Wolf</a> </td> <td> Original Music </td> </tr> <tr style="border-top: 1px solid #f5f5f5"><td> </td><td> </td></tr> <tr style="border-top: 1px solid #f5f5f5"> <td> </td> <td> <a href="/CreditableEntity/49708" style="text-decoration:none; color:rgb(151,0,51)" title="Has 4 credits">Donald T.
