Frankenstein has been a popular novel turned movie since it was first published in 1818. 

At Emory University, three Atlanta playwrights took a new look at Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein with modern scientific research. They each contributed to a single show that’s being performed at the Atlanta Science Festival.

We were joined by Neely Gossett and Edith Freni, two of the three playwrights from the show "Frankenstein Goes Back to the Lab."

Host Adam Ragusea talks with "Frankenstein Goes Back to the Lab" playwrights, Neeley Gusset and Edith Freni.
