After TUTTO BRUCIA, Motus, Italy’s most successful free theater collective, returns to Kampnagel with their latest production. The starting point for the play’s development is Mary Shelley’s almost 200-year-old novel Frankenstein. In extreme, frozen, painful landscapes, two characters chase each other, seeking shelter. Anger, love, alarm, horror, and more love, an excess of unrequited love. Shelley’s novel is a prototype of the science fiction novel and has been revisited by many scholars as a “fable of a non-reproductive world.” Also on stage this time is the exceptional actress Silvia Calderoni.
