Over the last two hundred years, Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel, Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus has formed the basis of many motion pictures, theatrical productions, and television shows. The familiar tale of a scientist who attempts to create life from the body parts of the dead has been told as traditional drama, comedy and satire, Shakespearean tragedy, and absurdist melodrama. It has also inspired the work of other writers to create their own unique tales, like Maurice Renard’s The Hands of Orlac, Curt Siodmak’s Donovan’s Brain, Hanns Heinz Ewers’ Alraune, and many others.

But the chronicle also reveals a hidden agenda – fueled by the astonishing courage of a revolutionary group of LGBTQ+ artists spearheaded by producer Hunt Stromberg Jr. and his screenwriters Christopher Isherwood (THE BERLIN STORIES – the basis for CABARET) and his lover, artist Don Bachardy.
