Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
by Peter Griffith, based on the novel by Robert L. Stevenson
Dr. Jekyll is a respectable London doctor. Edward Hyde is a
vicious murderer. What can be the connection between these
two very different men?
Jekyll’s friend Utterson knows that
there is some mystery
involved: but he does not suspect the
horryfying truth - that
Jekyll and Hyde are the same man!
Inside Jekyll’s head, goodness and evil struggle for dominance.
What dreadful deeds is the bestial Mr. Hyde capable of? - and
will it be possible for Jekyll to resume his goodness, once he
has given in to temptation of becoming Hyde?
White Horse Theatre's production presents the dramatic
unfolding of the mystery as Utterson gradually discovers the
extraordinary truth; and at the same time it shows the struggle
inside Jekyll/Hyde - a struggle which every human being knows,
but which no-one has so memorably expressed as Robert Louis
Stevenson in his famous novel.
