evening with a themed meal in the historic and fully-decked-out Clausing Barn,
followed by an engaging play that will have you on the edge of your seat.
“Frankenstein,” by R.N. Sandberg, brings Mary Shelley’s terrifying novel to the
stage in an adaptation that reveals a much more complex and tormented creature
than found in the classic movies. Victor Frankenstein’s triumph turns to terror as his
grotesque and despairing creation follows him home, threatening and demanding
that Victor do the one thing he has sworn never to do - create another creature
like himself, a companion, a wife. Old World Wisconsin, W372 S9727 Highway 67,
