Hobart’s Loud Mouth Theatre Company has announced that its next production, a creative response to Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, will be their last.

The company was established in 2014 by Artistic Director Maeve MacGregor, together with co-founders Campbell McKenzie and Katie Robertson, after they returned to Tasmania from working and studying interstate and overseas.
