Jonny Lee Miller and Tanya Reynolds shine in this debate between art and artifice.
Gary McNair's one-man adaptation of Jekyll and Hyde faces a daunting obstacle: most of us know how it ends. Consequentially, the piece's challenge shifts from the story itself to how it is told - it not only needs to be immensely engaging, it needs to present a new perspective to combat overfamiliarity.

“These jokes are 400 years old, help me out here!” Dromio of Syracuse begs the audience at the Barbican. In truth, he doesn't need help. The whole company don't need any help. Director Phillip Breen succeeds in summoning such a direct and resolute style of comedy in his staging of The Comedy of Errors that it feels like Shakespeare might as well be a contemporary writer of ours.
