"...It’s alive! The classic horror line from Mary Shelley’s iconic novel encompasses so much more than just noting the doctor’s dark discovery when it comes to Landless Theatre Company’s newest production: Frankenstein. A world premier of Richard Campbell’s Prog Metal Opera graces the stage for a mind-blowing, face-melting, phenomenal experience that brings a revitalized life to the monster and his creator. Directed by Melissa Baughman, this stunning sensation is a must-see; the sheer talent alone will literally leave you in awe. With incredible costumes and an orchestra to die for, this rock opera is a rare delight for musical, opera, and classic literary fans alike."

"...A Gothic-novel-turned-musical is good, but a Gothic-novel-turned-rock-opera is better. Landless Theatre Company's Frankenstein is atmospheric and exciting, a surprisingly faithful adaptation of Mary Shelley's original novel. Strong vocal performances overshadow a few minor flaws in design. The lyrics are poetic but passive, but the orchestration adds complexity and dimension to a familiar story."

Keeping his lupine snarl, Bowen, as The Creature, spit and bit into consonants, every word coherent and emotionally colored. Bowen used words as instruments of his vengeance, in the way fans love masters of hard rock to do.
