Saturday 19th October
7.30pm – 9.30pm
By Robert Louis Stevenson
Adapted and performed by Mark Stratford Age Guide: 12+
First published in 1886, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is a mystery tale about the conflict between good and evil, still relevant to the modern day with its themes of identity and addiction.
In this faithful adaptation, Stevenson’s gripping narrative is brought vividly to life through a combination of powerful story-telling and masterful character creation. Mark Stratford’s solo performance is a tour-de-force, conveying each character through gesture and voice alone.
Tickets £12.50

“A gripping one-man show. Stratford’s performance held the theatre spellbound…It is a model of what a one-person play should be…Be prepared to be scared – and entertained” (ReviewsGate)
Join us on a journey through gothic horror and melodrama to joyful jazz and poetry; from beautiful baroque music to soul-stirring operatic arias. Prepare to be hooked by classic storytelling, powerful visual art and evocative film, and of course – consummate musicianship.
