Elizabeth Elkins directs the new work (opening Oct. 4), which "follows Anne, a lowly hermaphroditic Franken-girl with big dreams and an even bigger diary, as she comes of age in the attic of an abandoned genetics laboratory in Bavaria in 1945," according to production notes. "After years of peaceful anonymity, Anne's privacy comes to an end when her cruel and twisted creator, Dr. Gustav Frankenstein, returns to the defunct compound with an eye toward his most fiendish experiment yet – the resurrection of Adolf Hitler!"

The production will feature three-time Glammy and HX Drag Queen of the Year nominee Mimi Imfurst (as Anne), and Bloolips drag performer Lavinia Co-Op (as the Diary), with Joseph Beuerlein, Geoffery Borman and Jessica Caplan.

The production features set and props by Chesley Allen, lighting by Nick Lazzaro, sound by Eben Lillie and costumes by Mel Kier.
