Frankenste In is on its way to Tunkhannock’s Dietrich Theater As London’s National Theatre celebrates its official opening of director Danny Boyle's stage ver- sion of “Frankenstein” across the pond, the Wyoming County Cul- tural Center at the Dietrich Thea- ter in Tunkhannock is busy readying for itscommunity-based theatre production of “Franken- stein” from March 9-13. Like Danny Boyle’s version of the play, adapted for the stage by Nick Dear, the Dietrich’s Director of Theatre Arts Jennifer Jenkins also adapted the show to stay true to Mary Shelley’s enduring novel. “Frankenstein is not about a monster,” Jenkins said. “It is about the creation of life, specifi- cally a superior being with hair of a lustrous black, and flowing and teeth of a pearly whiteness. And yet, from his first breath, he in- spires only horror and disgust. The same creature built in the likeness of man is abandoned by his creator and then despised and feared by all he meets. This abject loneliness, this desperation for some small human kindness, is what turns him into a monster.” Local actors Matt Wallikas and David Swanson will play the parts of Victor Frankenstein and the Creature, respectively. A diverse cast, including Bron- wyn Frazier as Elizabeth, Jericho Hendershot in the role of Henry Clerval, John Tillman who plays Robert Walton and Emily Sander- Some cast members of "Frankenstein" that will be presented at the Dietrich Theater in Tunkhanock are, from left, first row, Matt Wallkas as Victor Frankenstein, Bronwyn Frazier as Elizabeth, John Tillman as Robert Walton.
