DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE Set for The Underground at The Duluth Playhouse
The Playhouse will present in The Underground, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, a new play adapted for the stage by Jeffrey Hatcher from the novella "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson. The production will run November 10-19, 2016.
The timeless tale about the good doctor, Henry Jekyll, and his dark echo, Edward Hyde, is brought to the life in the Underground in a fiercely theatrical new adaptation by Jeffrey Hatcher.
Dr. Henry Jekyll is a brilliant scientist frustrated by dull "respectable" life in 1888 Victorian London. He creates a potion to unleash his inner bestial nature, transforming him into the brutish but eerily endearing Edward Hyde. Hyde lives the high life while Jekyll's mundane doctoral career continues -- until Hyde's passions begin to turn up a body count.
Equal parts thrilling and deviant, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde will captivate those brave enough to step into Dr. Jekyll's laboratory.
What's even more remarkable is that this new version of the classic tale of depravity, lust, horror, and suspense is how the cast includes four Hydes, further splitting the morality of good and evil.
Starring: Rob Larson as Dr. Jekyll, Kitara Peterson as Elizabeth, and Michael Kraklio, Michael Pederson, Luke Moravec and KT Mueller all as Mr. Hyde. Directed by Jonathan Manchester.
