Doctor Frankenstein’s Magical Creature – Cries In The Dark
by Karen Tortora-Lee on April 1, 2011
I had seen Rabbit Hole Ensemble’s The Tragic Story of Doctor Frankenstein (written by Stanton Wood and directed by Edward Elefterion) just a few short months ago and was so deeply impressed with the way it was presented that I was eagerly anticipating the second of the series Doctor Frankenstein’s Magical Creature. Another joint venture between Wood and Elefterion, Magical Creature tells both the same tale as Tragic Story as well as a completely different one; in a Rashomon type undertaking it retells the events from the perspective of the creature. Fear not – while you’ll recognize the bones of the original story (if you saw it) you most certainly are in for an entertaining evening as you watch the events unfold from the other side.
