Shared Experience brings to life the astonishing tale of Mary Shelley - and she came to write one of the greatest stories ever told, aged just 19.
Written by Helen Edmundson, this brand new play explores Shelley's remarkable life: her controversial philosopher father, her scandalous elopement aged 16, and how she wrote a novel, so radical in it's ideology, that in 1817 she changed the literary landscape forever.
"Theatre this engrossing is so rare, I can only urge you not to miss it." TIME OUT
Shared Experience is renowned for bringing classics to the stage in bold, imaginative ways.
A co-production between Nottingham Playhouse, West Yorkshire Playhouse and Shared Experience, Mary Shelley is directed by Polly Teale, Artistic Director of Shared Experience. Celebrated for her potent visual and imaginative style, Polly won the Evening Standard Award for Best Director for her own play After Mrs Rochester, which also won the Time Out Award for Best West End Production.
