Prepare to witness Frankenstein like you’ve never seen it before. This is not a show you simply sit and watch. In this immersive promenade production of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, the story explodes into life all around you—inside the walls of our venue, outside under the open air, and winding through every hidden corner between.
What to Expect: A promenade performance
- There are no fixed seats. Audiences move with the characters through the spaces in the venue — indoor rooms, corridors, lofts, outdoor alcoves — as the narrative unfolds live around you.
- Close-up, visceral theatre
- As this is an immersive performance, actors perform just inches away from the audience. You may see the crackle of fire on Victor’s face, hear the heartbeat of the Creature, and feel your pulse in moments of dread. The barrier between audience and action dissolves. To add to the intimacy of the moments, only 30 tickets will be sold per show.
- Inside and outside
- This production breaks down conventional walls. Scenes spill out into an outside performing area, rain or shine. Expect sudden shifts of light, shifting atmospheres, and the thrill of unpredictability as you follow the characters from room to yard and back again.
Why This Frankenstein is Different
This is a Frankenstein that refuses to stay in one place—much like its creation. It captures the moral, emotional, and scientific anxieties of Mary Shelley’s world in a way that is physical and immediate. As you move through spaces, light and shadow will chase you; the Creature’s anguish will echo through chambers. The adaptation stays true to Mary Shelley’s novel, while paying homage to the 1931 Karloff film by presenting much of the show in glorious black and white.
You don’t just watch the Creature awaken—you are there in the flash of that first spark. You don’t just hear Frankenstein’s regrets—you breathe them in.

So exciting! Would love to take my daughter to this, who is also a young author, just like Mary was!
Frankenstein is my absolute favorite novel of all time–to the point where I collect editions! I’d be thrilled to watch a live performance of it, especially one with such an interesting premise.
Its aliveee!!!!!
This looks like a fun unique experience!
Sounds great!
I’m excited to get a chance to experience immersive theater of a classic.
I wrote papers about her in college courses!
I remember reading Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein for the first time and it opened up a whole new world, it would be cool for my friend and I to experience this performance together!
My husband & I love live theatre but have had to cut back due to budgeting, but this is right up our alley! He is a big fan of the Universal Monsters and their source texts!
Love Mary Shelley
Omg, this sounds like so much fun! I’d love to go with my guy friend! I think it’d be a good ice breaker or first date for us!
Yes! More of this! Yes!

ETP is phenomenal and this would be such an incredible way to usher in the spooky season! I’d love to be able to experience the story of Frankenstein up close and personal while literally walking through Shelley’s tale.
frankenstein is one of my favorites. what an amazing way to kick off spoopy season!
What a unique experience. Would love a chance to be part of it
We love Experience Theatre, and I have never seen Frankenstein and would love to go!
I’m not Abby Normal, but a humble villager in ol’ Beaverton who heard there’s a new monster in town. I promise I am NOT one of the old school kind of villagers who “welcomes” new residents with a pitchfork and lit torch. I’d love to welcome Dr. Frankenstein and his creation to town in a friendly fashion and promise to even provide them with as many Monster energy drinks as they can handle in honor of the occasion.
Absolutely fantastic! Would love to see this classic!
My husband and I are celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary on October 30th, and after five years our love is still sparking with electricity!! What better way to honor the occasion than by being swept into this frightfully fun and spooktacular Frankenstein experience?!
This sounds fantastic, would be amazing to see!
This would be so fun to do! My husband and I are celebrating our 15th anniversary this year on Friday 10/10. We’ve been struggling to find something that’s really special and unique. I want a fun and memorable experience that we can look back on for this special day. This would absolutely fit that bill!
I love the novel. It would be fantastic to see this show.
I enjoy horror, especially older stuff! And I like to see modern versions of it as well…

Immersive theater is the amazing!

I would love tickets for this. Poor Frankenstein.
“I do know that for the sympathy of one living being, I would make peace with all. I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.”
I would love to see this with my fiancé! We’re visiting from out of state that week and are huge classic horror fans.
I want to go to this!

Looks like a fun, weird (in a very Portland way) to experience spooky season!
I’d love to take my girlfriend to this show. She read Frankenstein for the first time this year and it was her favorite book of 2025. She also loves independent theater and always makes an effort to go to shows around Portland.
I would love to win this! Sounds like such a fun date night.

Sounds incredible, would love this creepy opportunity!
In these frightening times, it would be so much fun to experience some fictional frights in a theatrical setting and Experience Theatre Project’s staging of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is the absolute perfect ticket for this very thing!
We promise to leave our pitch forks home.
This sounds so exciting! I’ve been a huge fan of the book since I was a kid, and I’d love to see the show for my birthday!
Such a frightfully good time to be had.
I’ve never been to an immersive showing like this and I would love to go! I love the book FRANKENSTEIN, one of my classic favorites from childhood!!!
I hope if I don’t win this time they have more showings or more plays that we can enter for in the future!!
Please give me tickets to this. I want them and that should be enough!
Immersive theater is the best. I’d love to see Mary Shelley’s story come to life!
wow! that would be fascinating!
I’m never been to a promenade performance and this one sounds absolutely amazing!
I have never been to a performance like this and it sounds amazing. I would love to take my brother; Frankenstein is his favorite book and I just recently read it for the first time after growing up with the James Whale adaptation.
This sounds amazing!
Sounds cool!
What a cool sounding experience!!!
There’s no hocus pocus about it, this is event is sure to be a frightfully fa-boo-lous theatrical experience that would be just the jolt of energy I need to inject into the start of spooky season and kick it off right! Plus, it would give the perfect opportunity to test out these Frankenstein jokes:
-What’s Frankenstein’s favorite cheese? Muenster.
-What does Dr. Frankenstein call the graveyard? Human Resources.
-What did Dr. Frankenstein say to Igor? “Can you give me a hand?”
-Where did Dr. Frankenstein get all the supplies for putting together his monster? At the secondhand store.
Frankenstein is a classic

This is my favorite book of all time! Have never seen the play.
sounds interesting, like Cats but with Frankensteins
My friend Jessica would absolutely LOVE this!
I would love to win these!!! I am stoked for this show.
I would absolutely love to see how this plays out!
This sounds very fun! Would love to go!
This looks so cool! Frankenstein was my favorite book and what I did my final oral exam in college on way back in the day. Something about how it wasn’t an affront to God by eschewing the natural order of creation, but an affront to woman. This would be awesome to attend.
Huge immersive Theater fan, but I was let down by my first experience with this company. Would love to give them a second chance.
I was benevolent and good; misery made me a fiend
This would be a fun date night
This sounds really fun
I would like to win tickets because I love theatre and halloween!!!
I would love to win tickets because my friend is thinking about moving to Portland – he’ll be in town during this time and I want to show him everything Portland has to offer!
This would be a great event to take my friend who will be visiting from out of town! We love theatre, music, Halloween and all things fun and spooky!
Sounds incredible! What an experience!
Chance of a lifetime
Would love to check this out!
