Description: A discussion with Director Peter Anthony, actors Timothy Ackerman and Heath Howes. About OpenStage Theatre’s production of Frankenstein written by Nick Dear Hosted by Lenny Scovel "Beyond the more universal themes of parental neglect and abandonment, beyond the ethical/theological issues imbedded in the novel's narrative, there is a kind of relevance that is disturbingly more immediate. We are now living in an age when the possibility of creating or designing sentient life is on our horizon." -Peter Anthony Mary Shelley’s 200-year-old horror story continues to challenge the modern imagination in Nick Dear’s electrifying new adaptation. Given life by a man playing God, a Creature assembled from corpses sets out into the unforgiving world to discover his humanity. As he becomes increasingly desperate for companionship, the Creature confronts his horror-struck creator to strike a terrifying deal. This thrilling and deeply disturbing retelling will leave you asking, “Which is the man, which is the monster?” STAGES is an ongoing series produced by FC Public Media that features performance venues and productions throughout the City of Fort Collins.
