HYDE is an original adaption and continuation of Robert Louis Stevenson's novella; The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mister Hyde, which combines the mediums of Theatre, Film, Practical Special Effects Makeup, while drawing heavily from the gothic monster narratives that came before to create a truly thrilling experience that brings this classic horror story to life.
Set against the backdrop of modern day London, England. The play follows Harper Jackwill a surgeon of Whitechapel General Hospital, while operating on a mugging victim, Harper begins to see things, visions of the past and possible hallucinations of the future.
