REVIEWS

'Impressive...fine style....the result is a good, vivid, popular version of a great story, told with notable passion...As Jekyll and Hyde adaptations go, Patrick Prior's 70 minute two-hander is short, to the point and rewritten in brisk everyday language.'

                                                                                THE SCOTSMAN

 

'Stylistic...forensic examination of man's addiction to playing the bad lad....Abernethy and Marsden make a great stab at Prior's gradually unfolding text. Every emotional nuance is wrung out of it, and a packed audience sit rapt at such conversely dark materials.'

Just a line to thank you both so much for coming to our school again to perform 'Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde'. Whilst we are only a small school the students really did appreciate the performance. They got so much from it for their studies. Please keep us in mind for the future. The 'Titanic' project sounds good.................Sean Simington, Head Teacher, Eccles Hall, Norfolk.
