Mary Shelley: Frankenstein Unbound
"Her name was Mary Shelley, and this is her tale... not the one she wrote, but the one she lived."
Genre: historical drama
Writing prodigy Mary runs away with her lover, the radical free-love poet and science enthusiast Percy Shelley, and Mary's naive aspiring-starlet stepsister tags along. They end up at the retreat of Lord Byron, a capricious bad-boy celebrity for whom Claire is a groupie - together, they form a group of intellectuals who call themselves 'The Elect'. When Byron issues a challenge to write a frightening story, Mary weaves their personalities, and her own tragic experiences, into a literary patchwork - but her creation also foreshadows things to come, for the very people who have given her inspiration will become sources of heartbreak...and tragedy.
Mary Shelley: Frankenstein Unbound is an original stageplay written by Carly Bryann Young, based on real-life events from the early 1800's.
A stage reading was performed for the members of the GRT (Group Repertory Theatre) in Burbank, California on St. Patricks' day 2014. The World Premiere was a full production performed on the mainstage Alice Silverman Theatre at the Newport Performing Arts Center in Newport, Oregon under the direction of Carly Bryann Young (August 15-24, 2014). http://www.coastarts.org/events/2014/08/mary-shelley-frankenstein-unbound/
