Jekyll and Hyde

Performed by 2nd year BA (Hons) Musical Theatre students at ARU's Mumford Theatre, December 2022.

An evocative tale of two men – one a doctor, passionate and romantic; the other a terrifying madman – and two women – one beautiful and trusting; the other beautiful and trusting only herself. Both women love the same man and both are unaware of his dark secret.

A devoted man of science, Dr Henry Jekyll is driven to find a chemical breakthrough that can solve some of mankind’s most challenging medical dilemmas. Rebuffed by the powers that be, he decides to make himself the subject of his own experimental treatments, accidentally unleashing his inner demons along with the man that the world would come to know as Mr Hyde.
