Playing with Fire archiveAdapted from Mary Shelley's novel, the play begins with an exhausted and dying Doctor Frankenstein, finally having tracked down his creature to the barren wastes of the North Pole. Determined to destroy the evil he believes he has created, Frankenstein finds himself faced with a pathetic and lonely being, and he has to confront the fact that he himself may be the evil one, and as the two debate, scenes from the past flash by. We are presented with a confrontation between father and child, scientist and experiment, driving towards an answer to the creature's agonising question: "Why did you make me?"
