About the show
Insane Odds Productions presents Fatherless Monster at The Snug, a comedy, theatre and horror show running for 45 minutes, priced at £2.50, for audiences aged 16 and over. Kyle is a wannabe stand-up star — handsome, charming, with a complex relationship with his dad. He is also made up of dead bodies. The show invites the audience to get to know Frankenstein's Monster like they never have before, face to face with only a mic and stage lights between them. It includes audience participation and discussions of strained parental relationships and mild body horror.
Why see this show?
A witty and inventive 45-minute show that reimagines Frankenstein's Monster as a stand-up comedian. For £2.50, it is an irresistible gamble — and the premise is sharper than it first appears.
