A troupe from the British TNT Theatre will perform Frankenstein – The Monster and the Myth from March 17 to 21 in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

The play is directed by Paul Stebbings, with music and sound effects by composer Paul Flush.

Too many stage and film adaptations of Frankenstein ignore that the story is not just a novel, but a myth that has grown out of Mary Shelley's original.

TNT Theatre's production will combine actor Boris Karloff's skill with the intrigue of the original story to create a fascinating and entertaining new work.

The play will be performed at the Hanoi Opera House on March 18 at 8pm. Meanwhile, HCM City 's shows will be held on March 20 at 11am, and March 20 and 21 at 8pm.-VNA
