Wed 3 Oct 8pm

£14 (£12) £10 students & groups
NOW SOLD OUT - RING FOR RETURNS

Doctor Henry Jekyll is a good man. Successful within his field, respected by his peers and loved by his friends, he wants for nothing. Almost. Dr Jekyll has a secret. A secret he is finding it increasingly hard to contain… his outward appearance and calm demeanour mask the fires within him – greed, lust, anger and rage.
During an experiment into the splitting of personalities - something goes very wrong. Once Dr Jekyll transforms into the amoral and violent Edward Hyde, he is free to pursue his dark, unsatisfied desires… but at what cost? A chilling new adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic tale by Nick Lane, combines traditional storytelling and physical theatre which is both nightmarish and dreamlike.

Suitable for ages 11+

Wed 3 Oct: 1066: the Year of the Conquest
1066 was to be a momentous year in the history of England. It was to see three kings on the throne; three invasions and three major battles,
the outcome of which changed the course of history. Many myths surround the Battle of Hastings, but what really happened? The truth is even more astonishing than the legend.

Wed 21 Nov: Tyburn and the Newgate Calendar
By 1800 there were over 250 crimes for which the penalty was death by hanging and constituted what came to be called the ‘Bloody Code’.
Throughout the Eighteenth Century, in response to increased criminality (real and perceived) the State imposing harsh punishments meant to serve as a deterrent, strove to maintain law and order. The fate of many of the condemned was recorded as a warning in the Malefactors Register and later in the Newgate Calendar.
