⚡🖤 Something dark is coming to Lancaster Grand Theatre… 🖤⚡

This October, Lancaster Footlights present FRANKENSTEIN, Nick Dear’s gripping adaptation of Mary Shelley’s iconic Gothic masterpiece.

When Victor Frankenstein abandons his creation, a journey of rejection, revenge and humanity begins. A haunting exploration of responsibility, prejudice and the fragile line between good and evil.

Blending Gothic atmosphere with striking Steampunk design, this powerful production promises to be an unforgettable night of theatre, visually bold, emotionally intense and guaranteed to stay with you long after the curtain falls.
