Show Synopsis
Adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher, based on the story by Robert Louis Stevenson, this play features a strong ensemble cast to tell the mysterious tale. In foggy Victorian London, Dr. Henry Jekyll’s studies have resulted in the creation of a second self-- the villainous Edward Hyde. When Hyde meets a woman who stirs his interest, Jekyll fears for her life and attempts to end his experiment. This sparks a battle of control between the two incarnations, ensuing in a deadly game of cat and mouse. The nefarious Mr. Hyde is played by multiple actors throughout.
