Freak Out With Frankenstein in Abbey Churchyard
Similar events
View all →About This Event
Bath will come alive this October as 80 young dancers transform the city centre in a spectacular, free, open-air celebration of Mary Shelley and her iconic novel, Frankenstein. Marking the author's connection to Bath, where she wrote Frankenstein in 1816, Mary Shelley's House of Frankenstein, in partnership with the Dorothy Coleborn Dance School and Bath Children's Literature Festival, is proud to present Freak Out with Frankenstein – a free family event celebrating creativity, community and one of literature's most iconic characters. On Saturday 3rd October, around 80 dancers aged 6 to 18 will perform two large-scale, flashmob-style routines near Bath Abbey at 4pm and 5.30pm. Specially choreographed for the occasion, these energised performances celebrate Mary Shelley's remarkable connection to Bath and the lasting cultural impact of her legendary creation, as explored across the five-floors of Bath's House of Frankenstein
