Duration

2 hr

Watch a mesmerizing rendition of a classic novel on stage today at the St. Luke’s Theatre, presented by John Lant, Tamra Pica, and director Clint Hromsco.

In this musical adaptation of one of the most revered tales of fiction, Frankenstein: A New Musical, lyricist Eric B. Sirota does a marvelous job of utilizing the epistolary framework of the novel in his score for the musical. When a distraught Victor Frankenstein loses his mother at a young age, he vows to conquer mortality by reanimating old body parts of old corpses through electricity, little does he know he is about to create a hideous and heinous creature who is hell-bent on finding an identity in a world that abhors him.

Coming to St. Luke’s theatre in 2018, marking the bicentennial anniversary of the novel, Frankenstein: A New Musical has become a mainstay on the Off-Broadway stage. Erick Sánchez-Canahuate delivers a powerful and harrowing performance as the creature, and stirs audiences to look at the humane side of the creature.
