MONSTER + FARMER

By JM Christiansen

Montana Repertory Theatre is excited to announce the public performances of its upcoming Educational Fall Tour production, Monster + Farmer, by JM Christiansen. This educational and engaging play will have its public debut at the Zootown Arts Community Center (ZACC) on August 31, with shows at 2:00 PM and 7:30 PM.

Monster + Farmer offers a modern twist on the classic Frankenstein tale, set on a Montana ranch near the Mission Mountains. The story follows Riley, a teenage science prodigy who embarks on an adventurous project to create a creature inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and documents her progress on her YouTube channel. As the situation spirals out of control, Riley and her brother Aidan work to manage the ensuing chaos. Monster + Farmer compellingly addresses themes of family dynamics, the anxiety caused by social media, and the crucial importance of seeking support.

Monster + Farmer is written for middle and high school students but great for all ages!
