Mary Shelley Meets a Monster
Witty and sexy in equal measure, an evening with Mary Shelley on the stormy shores of Lake Geneva.
Witty and sexy in equal measure, Mary Shelley Meets a Monster invites guests into a stormy June in 1816, when Mary Shelley and four companions decamp to a villa on Lake Geneva to invent a new genre of literature. It begins simply enough as an evening spent rained in with some of the greatest creative minds in history, but soon becomes a story about love, sex, creation, ambition, power, and resurrecting the dead.

About Dreamqueen Collective
‘Dreamqueen Collective’ is the brainchild of wacky Vancouver-based artist Fairlith Harvey (fairlith.com), and approaches projects one at a time using a profit share model with full financial transparency and a lengthy timeline. A return to all of our theatre school roots – everyone who participates will help with different aspects of production, whether that’s choreography, prop building, design, performance, devisement, marketing, costuming, fundraising, Discord moderation, direction, stage management, writing, something brand new to them, or any combination therein. The idea is to build a fun group project where everybody gets involved (aren’t we all the nerdy kid who did all the work in group projects in school?) to make something wonderful, for fun and joy.
