The Even stranger case of dr jekyll & mr hyde
“If he shall be Mr Hyde, I shall be Mr Seek…”
In the gloom of Victorian London, scientific discoveries could make a man’s fortune, or his downfall… or himself again as another man… maybe shorter, less attractive… and also, evil.
In the gloom of modern London, two women (F/F) play this one man (Dr/Mr) in a story that couldn’t make more sense if we tried, and we’ve tried.
‘Gone Girl’ meets ‘New Girl’. ‘Frankenstein’ meets ‘Inside No. 9’. Dr Jekyll meets Mr Hyde.
Grace Hussey-Burd and Vita Fox (Fox & Burd) combine their shared love of mysteries and fake moustaches as they unravel this haunting case, filling your mind with questions such as:
Who is this mysterious man? What is this mysterious door? And will they ever stop being so mysterious?
A comedic retelling of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic gothic mystery, The Even Stranger Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is a fast-paced, baffling thriller told by two women in a variety of hats.
