‘Jekyll and Hyde’ - a mystery tale about the timeless conflict between good and evil - caused a sensation when it was published in 1886. In this highly acclaimed, gripping solo play, Mark Stratford offers a compelling and faithful adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s gothic classic.
In fog bound Victorian London, Gabriel Utterson works as a respectable lawyer. Concerned by a strange clause in his friend Henry Jekyll’s will, Utterson investigates the sinister Edward Hyde – Jekyll’s unlikely protégé. Convinced that Jekyll and Hyde’s relationship is founded on blackmail, Utterson embarks on a quest to learn more but, as he does so, finds the truth to be far worse than he could have ever imagined...
***** “A truly mesmerising performance” (North West End UK)
**** “A gripping one-man show. (Stratford’s) performance held the theatre spellbound... It is a model of what a one - person play should be... Be prepared to be scared - and entertained” (ReviewsGate)
