And at the feet of my master I learnt the highest of human skills, the skill no other creature owns: I finally learnt how to lie.Childlike in his innocence but grotesque in form, Frankenstein's bewildered creature is cast out into a hostile universe by his horror-struck maker. Meeting with cruelty wherever he goes, the friendless Creature, increasingly desperate and vengeful, determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal.Urgent concerns of scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the nature of good and evil are embedded within this thrilling and deeply disturbing classic gothic tale.Frankenstein, based on the novel by Mary Shelley, premiered at the National Theatre, London, in February 2011.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Book Description      \u003cbr\u003e\nFrankenstein by Nick Dear is based on \u003cbr\u003e\nMary Shelley's\u003cbr\u003e\n thrilling and deeply disturbing gothic novel and addresses scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the nature of good and evil. \u003cbr\u003e\n      About the Author      \u003cbr\u003e\nNick Dear's plays include\u003cbr\u003e\nDedication (Nuffield Theatre, Southampton, 2016)\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Dark Earth and the Light Sky (Almeida Theatre, 2012),\u003cbr\u003e\nFrankenstein (National Theatre, 2011),\u003cbr\u003e\nLunch in Venice (National Theatre Connections, 2005), Power (NT, 2003),\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Villains' Opera (NT, 2000), Zenobia (RSC, 1995),\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the Ruins (Bristol Old Vic, 1990),\u003cbr\u003e\nFood of Love (Theatre de Complicite, Almeida, 1988),\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Art of Success (RSC, 1986),\u003cbr\u003e\nPure Science (RSC, 1986) and\u003cbr\u003e\nTemptation (RSC, 1984).
