Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
Geneva, 1816. The year without a summer. Trapped inside by the weather, Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and young Mary Godwin sit down for a competition: to see who could craft the most spine chilling ghost story.
What Mary created would not only shock her companions, but send shivers up the spines of readers for centuries to come. The tale of a man wracked by grief and fear who wished to heal his broken heart; the tale of a scientist who wished to play god; and the tale of a creator who lost control of his creation…
This chilling new adaptation of Frankenstein embarks on a UK tour following a successful and sold out three week run at Boston Manor House in West London last Autum.

SIX the Musical Live! (12A)
Event cinema screenings.
Filmed at London’s Vaudeville Theatre and featuring the six original West End queens – Jarnéia Richard-Noel, Millie O'Connell, Natalie Paris, Alexia McIntosh, Aimie Atkinson and Maiya Quansah-Breed - each reprising their roles for a one-off, showstopping cinematic experience.
Watched by audiences of over 3.5 million, the box office smash-hit and double TONY award-winning SIX the Musical has reigned supreme as a global theatre phenomenon since its 2017 debut at Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
The electrifying show follows the long-misunderstood wives of Henry VIII as they strut out of the shadow of their infamous husband to reclaim their narrative and finally tell their stories in their own words - with plenty of royally good fun along the way.
Written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, this musical for the ages sees the six queens - Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Catherine Parr - take back the microphone through a series of infectious, empowering performances. The queens are accompanied by the sensational on-stage band, the Ladies in Waiting.
