Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
Adaptation by Jeffrey Hatcher
Director: Henry C. Timm
October 28-31 & November 4-7, 2010 at Third Avenue Playhouse in Sturgeon Bay
Thurs.-Sat. at 7:30 PM & Sun. at 2:00 PM


A dark and disturbing story liberally peppered with humor, this is the faithful yet abstract adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic horror novella of a well-meaning scientist and physician whose scientific experiments unleash his evil nature, which emerges in his alter ego.

"It's true to the times and the novella in that it's an exploration about the subconscious mind and good and evil. [...] It's an exploration of this man at that moment in the civilized world when we were just coming to understand that there is a subconscious mind." -Tracy Brigden, City Theatre Company, Pittsburgh

"More than a narrative retelling of the classic tale; Hatcher's Jekyll and Hyde has a contemporary sensibility that is inventive and clever." - Richard Cook, Park Square Theatre, St. Paul

"Not your grandfather's Jekyll and Hyde!" - Arizona Daily Star

Hatcher, co-author of Tuesdays with Morrie, was nominated by the Mystery Writers of America for an "Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Play" for this show.
