In an undetermined year, before the common era, Prometheus made a promise and kept it. And he was punished for it. In 17–, above the village of Chamounix, Switzerland, the Creature tells its story to its creator. In 1818, in England, Mary Shelley publishes Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. In 1993, in San Francisco, Susan Stryker writes My Words to Victor Frankenstein above the Village of Chamounix – Performing Transgender Rage. In 2025, in Portugal, a trans artist sees themselves as part of all this. All these fragments. All broken. All together.
Susan Stryker, in conversation with Alice Azevedo
13 December
Saturday, 4pm
Taking the show Prometo-me Moderna (I Promise Myself Modern) as its theme, this conversation draws on one of the texts that the play uses as its source and theme: My Words to Victor Frankenstein above the Village of Chamounix – Performing Transgender Rage, by Susan Stryker. The author of the text and the author of the play will be present, not excluding the possibility that the author of the novel may also come to haunt the event, in support or outrage (at her discretion).
