Review by Ryan E. Johnson on Austin.com:
For their latest production of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Trouble Puppet Theater Company throws away everything the audience may know about the classic tale, replacing them with the most outrageous, yet creative, ideas imaginable.

It all comes off as extremely bizarre, even a bit jarring at first, but once it pulls you inside its world, you won’t want to leave.
