The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
So a couple of weeks ago now, I had the absolute pleasure of going to watch 'The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde' which was touring at my local theatre not too long ago. And I have to admit to you that it was amazing! I can't describe how good it was. The play consisted of three actors who, played several different characters; which I believe they did amazingly well. And if I had another chance to go see it I would, without a doubt run there. But, I have to sadly say it has moved away from Hull and is now visiting other destinations around the country. So, if you have chance to go see it I advise that you do and fast, because the tickets will be selling out. Oh no!
This is James Weaver, the main guy of the show. He played the parts of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, this he did with sheer simplicity it was almost as though they were created for him to play. I have just realised that some of you may not know what this wonderful play is about. So here is what Hull Truck Theatre have to say about the play; originally written by Robert Louis Stevenson as a book and adapted by Nick Lane. Click here. I went to see the play for my friends birthday and one of them had a lets say 'thing' for Mr Hyde. This may be because of his passionate and leading role within the play. Although, I did find funny because he was nearly old enough to be her Dad. Overall, my advice would be read the book, see the play and just enjoy it as much as I did.
