The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde |
Hull Truck Theatre on Tour
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+

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. Stamford Arts Centre

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. Stamford Arts Centre
