Rewriting FrankensteinHow can your environments impact who you are and the choices you make?
Pick one of the following scenes from the play. Think about how the situation affected the Monster. Think about howif the scene unfolded differently, the Monster may have changed.
Rewrite one of the following to show how they would have impacted the Monster and his choices in life if thesituation had been different.
1. When Frankenstein sees the monster for the first time and his reaction is to run away2. When the monster is in a town, where dogs and towns people are after him3. When Felix shoots the monster4. When the monster kills William
Your scene should have between 2-4 characters. 1 or 2 of these characters may be your own characters (not fromthe play).
Your scene will have two parts:1. What happens to the monster (the situation)2. His choices as a result (the impact)
Which scene will you rewrite? Scene 3: When Felix Shoots the Monster
What is the situation in the scene? What do othersdo to the Monster?The Monster Finds Agathes house and sees some foodon the table, he eats it because of his hunger but beforehe can get to the apple, he hears a noise Agathe andFelix coming back from the woods. Felix goes out to dosomething in the woods, Agathe on the other hand staysin the hut and tries to find the food but could not find the
food because the monster ate it. The Monster comesback into the hut and discovers that Agathe is blindwhich an advantage for the monster because Agathecannot scream in fear of the monsters ugly looks. Agathethen discovers that the monster is there and is taking inthe monsters feeling like her own because Agathe is anoutlaw and so is the monster making them able tounderstand each other. Unfortunately Felix then comesback and sees the monster holding Agathe looking likehe is attacking Agathe. Agathe is trying to protect themonster whilst Felix is trying to shoot the monster with amusket in the end Felix shoots the monster making themonster want revenge and hurt Frankenstein.
How does this affect the Monster? What impact doesit have on his life? What choices does he make as aresult?It affects the monster by making him have the want toHURT Frankenstein and anyone that is related toFrankenstein. It also fills the monster with rage andhatred towards the people which have hurt him before hereached this point. This Impacts him because now he
isnt afraid of actually killing people now due to the factthat they tried to kill him. As a result of this he thinks thatonly grown up people hate him but not children so hegoes looking for a child, which turns out to be William,Frankensteins little brother. As the monster is trying to*kidnap* William, William shouts that Frankenstein willpunish the monster. That name makes the monsterangry which then makes the monster kill William.
How will you change the situation? How might thingshappen differently during the scene?
I could change the situation by having Felix actuallyaccept that the monster hasnt done anything wrong atall but is still an outlaw which could live with thembecause they are both outlaws. The things that wouldhappen differently would be that firstly, Felix wouldntshoot the monster or hesitate to shoot the monster,which would give the monster opportunity to snatch the
How will this affect the Monster? What impact will ithave on his life? What choices will he make as a
result?
This would affect the monster by having Felix andAgetha teaching him a lot of different things forexample, manners and language and perhaps how toactually act like a normal person. He might be Felixs andAgethas slave but he would still have a place to live

gun away and put it aside so Felix, Agathe and themonster can all sit down together to talk about why themonster is here and what the monster wants from them.
What would happen after that would be. The monsteris Agethas and Felixs slave for live because in act 3when he is talking to Frankenstein, he mentions that hewould be a slave for life if they had let him stay.
where he wouldnt be constantly attacked by peoplewhich are cruel to him
Rewrite the scene using your ideas from the purple boxes above. Your scene should:
Include A Note On Staging refer to page 6 in the Frankenstein playo Explain the set designo The scene in act 2, a cottage in a foresto A table, 2 chairs, a fireplace, a window, some bread, cheese and an apple, 2 doors (one upstage
and one to the side) guitar, a portrait of an elderly man, 1 big chair, logs and a small mirror, awooden knife holder
o Explain the costumes and propso Handsaw, musket, dead rabbits, basket of mushrooms, grey powder (gunpowder),o Explain lighting, sound, and special effectso Smoke from the musket, can be achieved with dry ice inside the musketo 2 plastic throw able plastic or light rubber knifes that fit the knife holder.o Splashing water effecto Basket of strawberrieso Basket of grocerieso Bag of woolo Barrel with water sign
Include a paragraph to explainyour choices for your Note On Staging I chose these things because of the things that I want to change in the play, and the effects I want to
achieve, and the way that the play was already set out. I wanted a handsaw to be added in because Felix,could use the handsaw to *magically* transform a bunch of logs into a chair, big enough for the monster tosit on, I also decided to make the musket malfunction, and when fired nothing comes out of the musket, asto make it so Felix doesnt actually try to shoot the monster, which in that time which he is surprised that themusket didnt shoot, the monster should grab the musket and put it aside whilest they talk. The monstershould also need to have some form of cleaning himself after getting all covered in dirt and mud so I wantthe splashing water sound effect to make the audience believe that the monster is taking a shower. Thestrawberries and groceries are for scene 2 where everything would be more nice and developed thegroceries will be from the village to show that he can get along with the vi llagers then, the bag of wool ispurely for Felix to exit holding it. The Barrel of water is for decoration purposes only and to show that themonster has actually contributed to the cottage.
Include descriptions of the characters refer to page 8 in the Frankenstein playo List each character and give a short (2-3 sentences) description of his/her appearance and
personality

Agathe blind, but moves around the room as easily as a sighted person, wears a
simple white clothed dress, when she first becomes aware that something is wrong
is when she starts to look vulnerable.Felix wearing a white T-shirt and black pants, proud owner of a musket, quick
tempered, and quick to reach assumptions.
The Monster looking hideous, like many different bodies cut up and pieced back
together in combination with other bodies to make 1 big and strong but hideous
body of the monster. The monster should be a being that is willing to befriend
everything and not hurt anything.
Bob the monsters name inside the cottage
Narrator (for time passing only) could be anyone backstage that talks into the
microphone to show that time passes
Frankenstein tracing and tracking the monster for three weeks, lead him to the
Cozy cottage, his goal to find out what happened to the monster.
Inside a simple cottage in the forest. A roughly cut table and 2 roughly cut chairs,
a simple fireplace, a window overlooking some trees, it is neat and clean but simply
furnished, on the table some bread, an apple and a piece of cheese, 2 doors, one
off to the side and one near the window
Outside the window is a hill which you can just see the roofs of some houses in the
village over the hill.
In the Distance is the furious barking of dogslike hounds in a hunt. It lasts for a
short while then dies away.
The light in the doorway is suddenly blocked by the monster, he is wearing a torn
and dirty shirt (white but the dirt makes it look smudged with brown), his
expression is hard to read even though anger and fear seems to be involved in it,
his arms are torn and bloody along with his legs.
He stands there nervously and looks around as if checking for threats before he
comes in.
He sees the food on the table and attempts to scoff the bread and cheese down
while keeping the apple for later.

Hearing the shuffle of people walking he freezes and quickly runs out through the
door off to the side just managing to shut the door before Agathe and Felix comes
in.
Felix: [off stage] Not far now, mind that stone
Agathe: [off stage] Heavens above, Felix, I know theres a stone there. I know
every inch of this path
Felix: [off stage] You ought to carry a stick. I dont know why you dont
Agathe: [off stage] What. And go tap-tap-tappedy-tap everywhere? I need my
hands to carry things. Im also more agile than you are, and I bet I could find my
way back to the cottage from anywhere in these woods, I know them so well
Agathe and Felix comesin, they are simply dressed. Felix carrying a dead rabbit
and a musket, whilst Agathe, a basket of mushrooms. Although Agathe is blind she
knows her surroundings so well that she moves about with as much freedom as a
person with the ability of sight does.
Felix stands the Musket in a corner.
Felix: There. Ill clean it this evening. Time I made some more bullets.
He puts the rabbit on the table but carelessly so he doesnt notice that the food is
gone. Agathe puts her basket on the table too, then sits down in one of the twochairs.
Agathe: Ill also skin the rabbit in a minuet. Shall I make a pie? Or would you like a
stew?
Felix: Hes an old one he will be a bit too tough for a pie. Well have a stew, and
put some of that wild garlic in.
Agathe: And the mushrooms and the carrot or two were living quite well. Whod
thought that we could?
Felix: Not the judges who sent us here, thats for sure. They thought that Exile
would kill us, as it killed father.
Agathe: Well survive, well do more than survive well prosper.

Felix: We havent faced winter yet. That wont be so easy look, I think Ill load
the gun before I go. Just in case.
Agathe: If you must, but dont expect me to shoot anyone.
During the discussion, Felix loads his musket with powder and shot, While Agathe
fetches and tunes a guitar from the corner of the room.
Felix: I dont like leaving you alone with no protection. Just point it roughly in the
right direction and pull the trigger thats all you have to do.
Agathe: I dont like the noise.
Felix: All right, swing it round and hit em with it, I dont care. But Ill feel better
if you have something to protect you, even if youre so brave and independent that
you dont want it
Felix uses the muskets ramrod to check that the bullet isfirmly in place.
Agathe: Whos going to attack me, Felix?
Felix: Thats a silly question. This is a wild part of the country, Agathe there are
wolves and bears in the forest, even if the bandits are having a day off. And
theres been some trouble down town. Didnt you hear the dogs earlier on?
Agathe: I thought the men were hunting
Felix: The town dogs were barking too. You must have heard them.
Agathe: Well, if its down in the town, wouldnt you need the musket more than I
will. Oh, Im not arguing I know your right. But I feel safe here.
Felix: No harm in being prepared. If we didnt need more powder and lead Id leave
the rest of the stuff for a day or so, but I might as well get it all what else was
it? Flour?
Agathe: And soap, and salt. And if you can find some honey
Felix: We could set up s hive or two ourselves next year. I wonder if I can find
anyone who could let me have a queen bee? Comment [JH6]: This dialogue is gooneed to also see how the characters are

Felix: I suppose we could settle here the people in the town are friendly enough,
and I could get some kind of work on a farm perhaps. But its very lonely for you.
Agathe: Better than prison. Have you loaded that thing yet?
Felix: Just about. Its here in the corner. Remember, you pull back the hammer
two clicks. And hold it tight, or youll hurt yourself
He stands the gun in the corner and shoulders a canvas bag.
Felix: Ill be back before sundown. Dyou want some wood for the fire before I go?
Agathe: No, Ill do that. You go.
He kisses her.
Felix: I should get that rabbit cooking soon, or itll be like eating a boot.
Agathe: Oh, stop fussing!
Laughing, he goes out.
She puts the guitar down and reaches on to the table for the apple. Felling that itis not there, she frowns.
Oh, you might have left me the apple thats a mean trick.
She reaches around the table once more to try and find the loaf of bread and
cheese, finding that both items are not there she gasps in surprise.
Did Felix really take all the food with him to the village to eat as snacks? Felix, you
greedy pig.
She gets up and goes to the door as if to call him back, but changes her mind.
Well, he HAS got a long way to walk before he reaches the village, but shouldnt
the apple be enough for a snack? Its not like him taking things without saying
anything

She comes back and sits down, picking up the guitar.
Anyway, Im not hungry.
She plucks a chordthen stops abruptly.
Supposing it wasnt Felix though?
Head alert, listening, she looks around.
Hello? Is anyone there?
At this point the Monster silently and slowly with a scared expression, creeps into
the room. He starts to open his mouth as if to say something, but then closes it
again as if he decided against it.
The door was open anyone couldhave come in no, Im only being silly. This place
is safe.
She begins to play a simple folk tune.
The monster slowly edges around to the other door looking all the time at Agathe
in fear of being discovered.
She comes to the end of her short piece and puts the guitar down, sighing
No thats too sad. Oh, Papa
She gets up and wanders towards the portrait of an elderly man, with the monster
happening to be beside it.
The Monster freezes and starts trembling in fear because he had noticed that
Agathe was walking towards him, he holds his breath as a last effort to not be
discovered .
Agathe goes up to the picture and seems to be staring at it, the monsteraccidentally nudges the side of the frame causing the picture to wobble, making
the monster even more scared than ever from fear of being discovered. He seems
to realize that Agathe cannot see him because she wasnt reacting to the wobbling

picture, he waves his hand slowly in her face as if experimenting, getting no
reaction, a light dawns on his face, but he still does not move.
Agathe reaches up and takes the picture down from the wall and goes to sit down.
The Monster stays where he is and listens.
Father, I expect its silly talking to a picture I cant see - Its silly talking to a
picture anyway. But I cant worry Felix, and I cant write a diary, and Im just
worried, Papa. Will we survive here? Will we manage to find enough food? Will Felix
find work somewhere? Youre silent. You dont know any more than I do. Are you
watching over us, Papa? Im sure you would if you could. But we havent done badly,
have we? We never had to lift a finger before. The servants did it all for us. But
Weve lived here for 6 months now, and every so often Felix shoots a rabbit or a
couple of pigeons, and theres the apple tree, and I know where the wild
strawberries grow I thinkyou arelooking after us Papa. You wouldnt leave us on
our own
During this speech, the Monster silently moves towards the door and goes out.
She presses the picture to her heart, bowing her head over it.
But its very hard I wish wed say goodbye before they took you away. Though I
dont know how I could have let you go
The monster returns. His arms are full of logs. He puts them down very carefully
as so not to make any sound, in the hearth.
Then he takes the apple from his pocket and slowly puts it down on the tableonly
to freeze and draw back as she looks up at where the monster is standing. He
stands still as she goes and puts the picture back on the wall. Then she picks up a
little mirror from the shelf
Thank heaven, I remember what you looked like, Papa I can judge a real face with
my hands now, but I cant judge the expression of the picture. And I cant see my
own face anymore I used to be pretty. I think I was pretty. What I am now, only
Felix knows
She looks in the mirror. The monster who has come up beside her watches her
curiously, comparing her face with the image. She puts the mirror back.
Its no good, everything has changed, theres no looking back.

She gets up swiftly and goes stand in the door way, as if she is nervous about
remaining inside, she looks out, biting a nail
Meanwhile the Monster, unable to resist it, picks up the mirror, feeling his own
face, and slowly brings the glass up and looks in it,
Monster: UGGGHHHH!!
He drops the mirror which shatters. Agathe hears, and turns at once in fear.
Agathe: Whos that? Whos there?
He leaps to her and seizes her hand before she can run away.
Agathe screams.
He puts his hand over her mouth. She sturggles but he is too strong.
Monster: No! No! Friend!
With one hand he holds her, with the other he reaches to the table and picks up
the apple, which he puts into her hands. As she feels it he says again.
Monster: Friend! Friend!
Agathe: Youre giving me an apple who are you? What do you want?
Seeing her relax a little, he releases her. She steps away at once, still fearful
Monster: I have come a long way help. Help me.
Agathe: It was you that ate the bread and brought the logs in?Monster: I will not hurt anyone. I am their friend. Friend of everyone. I give you

But she turns to the monster and clings to him, trying to shield him.

Far stronger than she is the Monster pushes her aside, and as she falls Felix

The roar of the musket fills the stage.
The monster, realizing that the bullet had jammed in the musket from Felix

things though, for example hunting for more food, his strength and agility couldcome in handy.
Agathe turns to the Monster
What would you have done if you didnt find us? You could have starved to death
or killed by one of the villagers or maybe the dogs or killed by a musket [less
loud and more to the audience] which nearly happened
Monster: you tell him nice stuff tell him why I stay so he understand.
During this talk, Felix slowly creeps over to the kitchen knives neatly stacked in a
wooden knife holder, he picks one up and aims, as if he was going to throw it at the
Monster.
Felix: Eat this you big lying murderous monster!
Felix throws the knife with amazing accuracy and speed, with the monster only just
dodging the knife by ducking at the last second.
Agathe: [scream] AHHHHHHH! KNIFE!
She runs towards Felix to pull him away from the knifes
Felix:Get out of my way! If we dont get him out of the house, hell kill both of us!
Then he would go and terrorize the town! You dont understand him! He hasnt told
you of all the nasty things hes done!
Agathe: Felix! Have some sense! Hes weaponless! He couldnt kill you if you kept
hitting him with your knife!
Felix: I guess youre right, [grudge holding] BUT STILL, he killed half the dogs in
town, scared 75% of all the chickens to death, bathed in the water of the sacred
lake and destroyed 2 shops by simply running right through them! How could you

Agathe lets go of Felix as he sits down and considers the proposal, for a while,
everything is quiet
Felix: Fine, he can stay, but if he makes one false move,
Felix makes a gesture of splitting ones throat
Agetha:You can stay! Oh, I am so happy for you that you can stay with us, imagine

Agathe:Ffirstly Bob, you should go and get those ripped clothes off and take a
nice warm bath so all that dirt doesnt get into your wounds. After that I will tend
to your wounds but for now, just go take a bath.
Bob carefully and slowly makes his way out of the room as not to break or damage
anything. A water splashing effect can be heard, the lights and all sounds fade out
as Agathe starts trying to skin the rabbit with the knife
Narrator (for time passing only): 3 weeks later, in the same cottage
The same cottage that can be seen in scene 1, the main difference is that now,
there is a 3rd, bigger chair, a wooden barrel stands on its own to 1 side that is
labeled with a wood plank with letters carved into it to form the word water this
is supposed to represent the fact that the monster has actually done something in
3 weeks of joining Agathe and Felix
Felix: [off stage] Not far now, mind that stone
Agathe: [off stage] do you really have to say that every time I walk down this
path? I thought that I told you that I already know every single inch of this path?
Felix: [off stage] just thought Id remind you.
Bob: [off stage, groan] how much longer until we reach the cottage? Im tired and
thirsty
Agathe, Felix and Bob arrive at the cottage door, Agathe can be seen with a basket
full of strawberries, Felix with another rabbit and the monster carrying a basket
which has been filled up with groceries from the village.
Agathe: Ahh, feels nice to be back in this cozy cottage, its like home back before
we got sent to Exile, just more cozy and defiantly smaller.
Bob: has my English improved?
Felix: ever since we decided to teach you how to speak proper English, you have
been asking us that question every time we arrive home, and the answer has always
been yes. What do you think the answer for today would be?
Comment [JH12]: Needs to be in cap

16/16
Name: Date:
Bob: No?
Agathe: Bob, stop underestimating yourself, you can now speak in consecutive
sentences! You couldnt do that yesterday in the morning could you?
Bob: So the answer is yes?
Felix:Yup, now lets get down to what we should actually do today, the wool from
the village in that basket (points to the basket which the monster is still carrying)
should provide for effective soft bed cushioning , so no more back aches for
anyone. Should we have a celebration for the beds? Or for the 3rd week that Bob
has joined us? Or both?
Agathe: I think both, Ill make some rabbit pie with 1 of those 2 rabbits you shot.
Then we can have a nice lunch while celebrating! What do you think Bob?
Bob:I think thats a great idea! Especially because my poor tummy needs filling
right now.
Agathe and Felix laugh, all is well at the cottage and nothing needed fixing. Comment [JH13]: Good ending, youwell to show the situation, but could hav
more at the end showing how the mons
impacted.
