Frankenstein
On a chilled night, a brilliant young scientist brings a corpse back to life. Piper’s take on Mary Shelley’s classic tale of horror will be augmented by live music and six original rear film projections. Each film offers a glimpse into the mystery of the man behind the Creature. One film is being released each week leading to the opening night of Frankenstein, July 5th.
We began with ONE and TWO. And so we continue with THREE.
