When the police investigation into the brutal murder of Sir Danvers Carew fails to yield anything other than the name of a suspect who seems to have disappeared, his daughter Cordelia joins forces with her late father’s lawyer Gabriel Utterson to try and uncover the truth. But where is the sinister Edward Hyde and what is his connection to Utterson’s friend Dr Henry Jekyll?

The team behind last year’s acclaimed production of The Hound Of The Baskervilles return with a brand new adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s gothic masterpiece. Having delighted audiences around the world with their fresh, energetic and accessible take on open air theatre since 1999, British Touring Shakespeare are thrilled to return to Thorington with their innovative version of this classic tale.
