Vicky & Frank is a gothic musical comedy set in middle America circa 1950 and loosely based on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. It follows Vicky Godwin, a brilliant 17-year-old who’s building a reanimation device in her garage. After petitioning the school to allow her to take shop class, Vicky befriends Frank Neetins, a popular boy hiding his own dark secret. Finally, she succeeds in reanimating a dead dog—Prince Charming—who promptly grows to monstrous size and starts eating people. As if that weren’t enough, Vicky misinterprets her burgeoning friendship with Frank as romance…and ends up pushing him off a cliff. (Don’t worry. She reanimates him, too.) But when local police mistakenly attribute the rash of killings to Frank, Vicky will have to clear his name herself—all while navigating the murderous canine, a suspicious local journalist, her doting police chief father, her fraying friendships, and her complex feelings for Frank.
