Open Mic: The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. HydeOctober 28, 29, 30 and November 4, 5, 6

Adapted by Noah Smith from the novella by Robert Louis Stevenson – Directed by George McKee

Set in the year 1888 in Victorian London, brilliant scientist Dr. Henry Jekyll—frustrated with his dull and respectable life–creates a formula to unleash his inner bestial nature thus transforming him into the brutish Edward Hyde. Hyde lives the high life while Jekyll’s middle-aged, normal life continues–until Hyde’s passions begin to turn up a body count.

This reimagining of Robert Louis Stevenson’s science fiction classic returns to the original message of his novel–that a person’s inner nature is comprised with both elements of good and evil–and the way in which each one of us deals with that conflict is what defines our character.
