While the good Doctor Jekyll goes about his quiet business healing the sick in Victorian London, the evil Mr Hyde runs around at night doing frankly disgraceful things. What is the connection between them? What is upsetting all the servants? And why does Dr Jekyll seem so anxious to protect Mr Hyde?
Together with The Watermill Theatre, Rhum + Clay bring their comic sense of the absurd to this classic story, luring you down a dark Victorian alley into the underbelly of London to see what on earth you might discover.
Supported using public funding by Arts Council England.
