Fideri Fidera present a new play for all the family
Fideri Fidera in association with the registered charity
Touring from October 2025 and throughout 2026
Prof Frankenstein feels lonely. She has no friends and the local villagers are afraid of her. The professor thinks a baby might change things and so, one stormy night with a flash of lightning and the help of her robot Igor, she creates... FRANKY!
Although Franky is not quite what the Prof imagined, he sets off on an adventure to win the hearts of the grumpy villagers with the help of his new friend Fairground Annie and a dazzling lighting display from Igor the Robot.
Don't miss this fun-filled story with songs, a riotous hook-a-duck game, and the chance to learn the hottest new dance craze 'The Franky Walk!'
Franky is an entertaining, interactive show for children and their families with Fideri Fidera’s unique blend of music, song, physical comedy and lots and lots of fun audience participation.

Audience reviews from performances at Komedia, December 2024
“Franky is a very endearing and entertaining show. The two actors have a great physical presence and switch from melodrama to pantomime with ease.”

“We're huge fans of Fideri Fidera, having seen ALL of their shows & ‘Franky’ did not disappoint! The kids absolutely loved it & really laughed throughout (me too). The "Franky Hop" is a new fav & we're still dancing like zombies now!”
