Neil Bartlett’s 2022 stage adaptation of Jekyll & Hyde.

Henfield Theatre Company are excited to announce that their next production is Neil Bartlett’s 2022 stage adaption of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Jekyll and Hyde. This is a modern twist on “The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde”, which takes a somewhat more female-centric focus.

We follow a newly sworn–in Dr Stevenson (aptly named, and played by Emily Norman) as she navigates a male-dominated profession. She plays the role of a detective in a mystery world, unravelling the tale of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (played by Rebel Atkinson). Her presence allows somebody to hold the school of gentlemen accountable who, as the friends of the highly respected doctor, are beginning to wonder why he goes missing all the time!
