Clive Barker's "Frankenstein in Love," a Will Act For Food production, opens 9/25 September 25, 2008

Revolution and chaos.
Monsters and mutants.
Good and evil.
Life and death.
Blood and guts.

A heart-wrenching love story. Literally.

Not your typical Chicago theatre fare, "Frankenstein in Love" is inspired by Mary Shelley's similarly-titled classic, but the resemblance ends there:

A political revolution in a fictional South American country has turned the world upside down and opened the door to a secret laboratory, allowing chaos and monsters to escape. El Coco, the leader of this rebellion, is himself a created monster with a never-ending desire to be human, overcoming his murderous instincts and unnatural appetites. Nothing, he soon discovers, is more human than finding love. But standing in his way is Dr. Joseph Frankenstein, the man who gave him life and who now threatens to take it away. Ravenous creatures, sardonic ghosts, and desperate revolutionaries surround the question: Who is the Man, and who is the Monster?

Just in time for the Halloween season, Will Act For Food is thrilled and, yes, a little terrified to be bringing this play to Chicago.
