NTL Encore Presentation. Directed by Academy-Award® winner Danny Boyle, this thrilling encore production features Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller alternating roles as Victor Frankenstein and his creation. Frankenstein was a sell-out hit at the National Theatre in 2011, and the broadcast has since become an international sensation, experienced by over half a million people in cinemas around the world. Childlike in his innocence but grotesque in form, Frankenstein’s bewildered Creature is cast out into a hostile universe by his horror-struck maker. Meeting with cruelty wherever he goes, the friendless Creature, increasingly desperate and vengeful, determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal. The October 30 screening will feature Cumberbatch as the Creature and Miller as Victor Frankenstein. The October 31 screening will feature Cumberbatch as Victor Frankenstein and Miller as the Creature.
