1816: The Year Without A Summer

About

Hot on the heels of Camden Fringe and off-West End success, 1816 returns to the stage.

Its Byron and Shelley, as you've never seen them before in this Friends meets Frankenstein comedy-drama musical, from the same company that launched SIX: 1816 is the ultimate origin story of the first modern vampire novel and Frankenstein, where a group of five Romantics get trapped for a summer they'd rather forget in their storm-swept villa by Lake Geneva...

Trapped indoors by torrential rain, legendary writers Byron, Percy and Mary Shelley and their friends, Polidori and Claire, search for inspiration by gloomy Lake Geneva. Driven by a desire for escapism, they challenge one another to create the best ghost story. But things fall apart the longer they are stuck together. Polidori's diary is brought to life in the 1816: The Year Without A Summer musical.
