A natural science student decides to create a human being. The experiment is an unexpected success. Its creator, however, despairs. We discover that the author, Mary Shelley, is not entirely comfortable with it either. Throughout her life, she denies and downplays the literary scope of her work.
Between wireless headsets, virtual settings, real actors and holographic avatars, the show is a dreamlike journey into the novel and, at the same time, into the lived experience of its author, who confuses herself with Dr Frankenstein, the Creature, with the Work and the characters with memories.
