Prepare to be captivated by the works of Robert Louis Stevenson in this haunting double bill.
Experience physical theatre at its finest as the tale of duality and inner darkness unfolds on stage, gripping you with its intensity and leaving you on the edge of your seat.
After premiering to rave reviews at the Durham Fringe in 2021, this haunting production of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde is now back for a full tour, ready to immerse audiences in its shadowy embrace. Adapted by award-winning writer Stewart Howson, this modern take on a spine-chilling masterpiece promises to enthral audiences with its gothic and atmospheric allure.
Complementing the eerie world of “Jekyll and Hyde”, NTC presents a double bill with “The Body Snatcher” adapted by Philip Harrison. Likely inspired by the real-life exploits of the infamous grave robbers Burke and Hare, this is a parable about the horrors of science and how scientific experimentation becomes a dark art - a philosophical treatise as alarming as Crime and Punishment, as compelling as Paradise Lost, and as chilling as Frankenstein.
Tickets £15 / £10 concession
£12 Early Bird tickets available from 25 August to 9 September.
