2018 marks 200 years since the publication of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, a book that is just as relevant now as it was in 1818. Today, Shelley's creature lives on, as an embodiment of society's anxieties about where science is taking us.
The Ri is closed for two weeks in the daytime from Monday 20 October to Sunday 2 November (inclusive) for refurbishment works. Our planned ticketed events will run as usual.
