Some years ago parents told us they did not enjoy the commercial shock and sugar-fest event that the commercialised Halloween had become. So it’s a non-scary, mask-free and as far as we can make it, a non-plastic Halloween.

Lamphouse Theatre presents One man, one monster, one glorious dream to single handedly tell the most famous cult horror story of all time, and absolutely no budget whatsoever. What could possibly go wrong Frankenstein (On a Budget) features one actor, some decidedly dodgy backdrops, lots of weather based puns, plenty of cardboard props and more hats than you can throw a stick at. Can our ill fated doctor build his monstrous creation, play 25 characters, sing a lot of songs, attempt accents from across the world, perform a dance routine, and ultimately save the day in just 60 minutes From the creators of the hit comedy action adventure musical War of the Worlds (On a Budget), featuring a full soundtrack of brand new music, with incredible cardboard creations and characters inspired by Mary Shelley and Boris Karloff, Frankenstein (On a Budget) is the comedy musical hammer horror homage that you didn’t know you needed.
