Hummingbird Interactive presents: Mary Shelley Lives Here

Mary Shelley wrote ‘Frankenstein’ but also ‘The Last Man’, a dystopia about a world that is dying due to climate change and war, and people that are too preoccupied with their own personal growth and happiness to change the tides. The book was inspired on her own life, dealing with losing friends and family and trying to find a new way to live, alone. Live VR experience ‘Mary Shelley Lives Here’ now shows Mary as ‘The Last Man’ of her own book, living alone on a small island, in harmony with nature. Her visitors (the audience) get to personify the people in her life and re-enact her story with her. A live immersive experience about coming to terms with death, losing your tight group of friends and starting a new life as an individual.
