YOU’VE read the book and seen the movies, now witness Frankenstein on stage in this bizarre monster mash-up at the Lighthouse Poole. The Miracle Theatre Company bring their unique interpretation of Mary Shelley’s classic to Poole on January 26.

Renowned for their surreal and comic re-workings of well known and loved stories, Miracle’s inventive approach promises to tickle funny bones and have audiences jumping out of their seats.

The show will give backstage glimpses of the intrepid players as they struggle to create their terrifying vision of the future – a world where the rich and famous have paid huge sums to have their bodies preserved at sub-zero temperatures in the Eternalife Cryonics facility hoping that, one day, science will be able to reverse the ageing process.

Told with the visual flair of early cinema and the elegant charm of the post-war British musical, this silly, but tender, story of unrequited love, confused monsters and science gone mad promises to hit the spot.

Expect foot-tapping songs, dazzling dance routines, eye-watering comedy and a jolly good fright.
