This April, Kingston Arts presents Jekyll & Hyde, a fast-paced, absurd, and laugh-out-loud version of the classic tale at the Shirley Burke Theatre. Brought to life by the award-winning theatre company A Slightly Isolated Dog, this sassy and interactive adaptation invites audiences to “bring your monster out to play” for an evening of comedy, chaos, and participation.
In this fresh take on the Jekyll & Hyde story, the contrasting attributes of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde take centre stage. Dr. Jekyll, the model of discipline and ethics faces off against Mr. Hyde, whose reckless and chaotic behaviour turns everything upside down. This performance playfully explores the tension between the self that conforms to social norms and the shadow self that longs to break free.
