Mary Shelley is dead. So why is she trapped in this graveyard, at her own tomb? Why is it storming overhead, with thunder and lightning, but no rain? And why can't she stop talking? In this tour-de-force play for one female actor, the writer of 'Frankenstein' delivers a ghostly monologue that encompasses her loves and losses, the inspiration behind her greatest work of literature, and the secrets she hoped to take to the grave. Now that she's there, much to her irritation and witty rage, she finds those secrets have followed her. 'Mary Shelley's Body' (perfect for Halloween or near June 16, the night Mary Shelley had the dream that inspired 'Frankenstein), presents a stormy collision of romance, horror, history and unforgettable storytelling.
