NEW SHOWS
Later this week we welcome Frankenstein: How to Make a Monster to our #TravFest19 family. Mary Shelley’s original, re-imagined with songs, soundscapes and sonic trickery. Experience the power of the human voice breathing life into monsters all around us. Frankenstein will leave you asking: who are the monsters we fear? Who created them? And how the hell did they just do that with their voices?
Finally, If you're looking for more on our full festival programme, you can watch the trailer here and explore the full season.
