Why: Back by popular demand! Phoenix Art Museum and National Theatre Live are thrilled to announce encore presentations of last year's smash hit Frankenstein. 

Childlike in his innocence but grotesque in form, Frankenstein's bewildered creature is cast out into a hostile universe by his horror-struck maker. Meeting with cruelty wherever he goes, the friendless Creature, increasingly desperate and vengeful, determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal. 

Jonny Lee Miller (Trainspotting, forthcoming Dark Shadows) and Benedict Cumberbatch (Warhorse, BBC's Sherlock, forthcoming Star Trek sequel) alternate roles in Danny Boyle's (Slumdog Millionaire, Trainspotting) adaptation of the Mary Shelly classic. Both versions will be shown. 

Sunday, June 24, 2pm – Version 2 (Benedict Cumberbatch as the Monster, Jonny Lee Miller as Dr. Frankenstein.) 

As a part of the National Theatre Live series, One Man, Two Guvnors will be recorded live in London and simulcast to the Museum. Phoenix Art Museum is the exclusive Phoenix-area venue for this thrilling series of great plays. 

Cost: $15 Museum Members, Arizona Theatre subscribers and students with ID; $18 general admission. Presented in high definition and Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound. Runtime: TBD.
