DESCRIPTION:Friday, May 25, 2007.  7:00 PM.  Location: Fools Foundation – 1025 19th 
 St, Sacramento.  Off of K St between 19th & 20th next to the back end of 
 Old Spaghetti Factory.  Admission: $5.00.  \n\nForget your backyard beer 
 and bbq this Memorial Day weekend and load up on your favorite opiate for 
 an evening of twisted Ken Russell weirdness!\n\nThe story is embellished 
 from events which allegedly took place at the Swiss villa of Lord Byron 
 (Gabriel Byrne) on the night of June 16, 1816 which supposedly led to the 
 creation of the novel Frankenstein. Byron's guests include poet Percy 
 Shelley (Julian Sands) and his future wife Mary (Natasha Richardson); 
 Mary's half-sister Claire (Myriam Cyr) and Byron's leech-happy personal 
 physician Dr. John Polidori (Timothy Spall). Byron promises them a night of 
 horror like only a mad poet can deliver — after partaking of laudanum and 
 other hallucinogens, the guests tell ghost stories while exploring the dark 
 corridors of his home. From here, Russell dives headlong into madness, 
 discarding plot structure in favor of fever-dream setpieces in which the 
 guests confront living manifestations of their own fears and insecurities 
 — creative, mortal and sexual, among others. As the Washington Post 
 synopsis includes: “Things get out of hand. Four-posters squeak with 
 sexcapades. There's perpetual thunder and lightning. Bugs scramble out of 
 people's mouths. Women stroke snakes. And there are enough rats in the 
 basement to send the Pied Piper back to music school. It's a Hell of a 
 weekend.”\n\nDigital projection on to a big screen.  Seating is on 
 folding chairs – feel free to bring a pillow or cushion.\n\nYou can
