Why do giants, monsters
and robots excite all children? This ancient story, set in Prague, shows how mystery magics up a giant, The Golem, to save the village people against harm. The Golem becomes a local hero. But, with time, what happens when The Golem decides to take control? Fusing puppetry, grotesque theatre with original music and a modern text, this new exploration of the Frankenstein story will thrill and intrigue young audiences. The Golem, inspired by the Jewish legend of the man made out of dust was the germ of Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein |
