#stayathome with John Connolly & Frankenstein

Stuck at home with nothing to do because of the Movement Control Order? Worry not, because we're here to keep the boredom at bay. Every day, we present our special curated list of arts, culture, and entertainment that you can experience right from your own home. Today, we recommend some reading material with John Connolly’s web-exclusive novella, The Sisters Strange. Then, we follow the story of Frankenstein and his creature in the latest play from National Theatre at Home.
