FRANKENSTEIN

An adaptation of the classic novel, under development at Bristol Old Vic.

The story of a rogue AI researcher and his super-intelligent creation, faced with an ethical decision about the nature of this new life-form, it's an iconoclastic, interactive version of the story with live video and a debate in the audience about the nature of AI.

The show will be a fun and innovative look at this well-known text, with wraparound materials and workshops for schools on AI ethics and the relationship between the text and the history of science.

Supported by Bristol Old Vic, Nottingham Playhouse, BAC, and the Arts Council.
