It’s shocking

Mary Shelley created a masterpiece when she wrote Frankenstein in 1818.

In University of New Mexico Associate Professor Gregory Moss’ adaptation, the iconic monster is given new life. A fresh take on a classic story, this show holds a mirror to the monsters that are in all of us.

It was created by Moss, Juli Hendren, Erik Ehn and Alejandro Tomàs Rodriguez.

The production, in UNM’s Rodey Theatre, begins at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, November 4 and Saturday, November 5, and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, November 6.

Tickets are $15 for the general public, $12 for faculty and seniors, and $10 for staff and students, plus fees, at unmtickets.com.
