More about the play: Theatre Vertigo Presents Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Adapted By Jeffrey Hatcher
From the Novella by Robert Louis Stevenson. Directed by Bobby Bermea. Jekyll & Hyde - A new and shocking version of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic tale of depravity, lust, love and horror. On the fog-bound streets of Victorian-era London, Henry Jekyll's experiments have brought forth his other self—Edward Hyde, a sensualist and villain free to commit the sins Jekyll is too civilized to comprehend. When Hyde meets a woman who stirs his interest, Jekyll fears for her life and decides to end his experiments. But Hyde has other ideas, and so the two sides battle each other in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse to determine who shall be the master and who his victim.
