How sad do you want it? I also know the perfect Arctic voyage that is so much like the one in Frankenstein it would make your blood run cold. That's great that Frankenstein is being set in the right time period. The best time wold be the Winter of 1788-89 because it was so cold. Cheers!

I'm seeking suggestions. I am directing Frankenstein, which is set basically 1785-ish, and the opening part takes place on a boat headed to the north pole. I wanted a moment when the sailors are singing a sad shanty in the background. Do you have any suggestions of sad shanties from that era? Many thanks!
