Business Overview
THEATRE MOMENTS adapts Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein," which is said to be "the world's first science fiction." The original story is a love-hate tragedy between an ugly monster and its creator, a scientist, and contains contemporary themes such as criticism of civilization, scientific ethics, and discrimination. This time, he used the acrylic panels at the reception desk and the plastic wrap at the seats as props, and the monster actor wore a mask all the time. A socially inclusive approach, such as audio guides, Japanese subtitles, English-Chinese subtitles, and a variety of discount tickets, also brought the production structure in line with the concept.
