Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde
Written by Patrick Prior | Performed by Pat Abernethy & Dave Marsden
First performed in 2006, this is a fast-paced adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novel which has enthralled audiences throughout Britain and Ireland and played to packed houses everywhere. An experiment to separate virtue from wickedness in his own nature results in the respectable Dr. Jekyll releasing the demon within – a malevolent force which will eventually possess his body and soul.
Isosceles Theatre Company have brought many shows to the Wharf, including the hugely successful show THE MAN WHO LEFT THE
TITANIC and also MURDER – JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED, and more recently, THE HAUNTERS. We are proud to be hosting them again with this gripping play.
“Done in fine style… a good, vivid, popular version of a great story, told with notable passion.”
The Scotsman
“Every emotional nuance is wrung out of it and a packed audience sit rapt at such conversely dark materials.”
Glasgow Herald
