“Man is not truly one, but truly two.” Prepare to be captivated by the mesmerizing world of Jekyll and Hyde.
Adapted by award-winning writer Stewart Howson and brought to life by director Alice Byrne, this spine-chilling masterpiece promises to enthral audiences with its gothic and atmospheric allure.
Experience physical theatre at its finest as the tale of duality and inner darkness unfolds on stage, gripping you with its intensity and leaving you on the edge of your seat. After premiering to rave reviews at the Durham Fringe in 2021 for a short run, this haunting production is now back for a full tour, ready to immerse audiences in its shadowy embrace.
“No rest for the wicked.” The Body Snatcher is adapted by Philip Harrison and likely inspired by the real-life exploits of the infamous grave robbers Burke and Hare. This is a parable about the horrors of science and how scientific experimentation, when void of compassion and humanity, becomes a dark art – a philosophical treatise as alarming as Crime and Punishment, as compelling as Paradise Lost, and as chilling as Frankenstein.
Running time: 45mins (Jekyll and Hyde) 20mins interval 40mins (The Body Snatcher)
