When the Sofia Puppet Theater invited us to create a visual and puppet adaptation of Mary Shelley's novel "Frankenstein," we created an artificial intelligence that we named Prometheus to realize it. In this performance, we will see the result of this conversation between man and artificial intelligence: a dialogue of questions and answers that, like Dr. Frankenstein himself, brings to life a creature made of borrowed fragments. Puppets, shadows, and words intertwine to ask us who the monster is and who the creator is, and what it means to create something that we can no longer control.
