Frankie Stein

A Play with Songs by Julia Taudevin

Directed by: Caitlin Skinner

Music & Lyrics Bethany Tennick

Frankie Stein – Is she human? Is she AI?   

Programmed to change the course of history, Frankie wants to serve the Techbro Bro-niverse but is rejected for being too emotional. Frankie searches for her Creator hoping to find answers but will this lead to the happy ending she dreams of?  

Inspired by Mary Shelley’s gothic novel, Frankie Stein is a darkly comic, sci-fi play with songs exploring gender, power and technology. 

Featuring the Young Quines and Quines Community Company with Yana Harris, Antony Strachan, Shona White.

Performed in Lochgelly, April 2025
