HIGH VOLTAGE REVIEW

Mary Shelley’s gothic tale, Frankenstein isn’t exactly a bundle of laughs. Mary, it seems, didn’t do jokes. Fast forward 200 years or so to The Stretton Players Spring production of High Voltage, Chris Niblock’s reimagining of this classic tale and there were jokes aplenty delivered with perfect timing by a superb cast. There was plenty for the audience to feast their eyes on too with great costumes and set, not to mention Frankenstein’s resurrection machine!

Copies of the script are available from amazon price £5.00. Performance licences are also competitively priced. https://www.amazon.co.uk/High…/dp/1916108296/ref=sr_1
