Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde

Calling all English GCSE students, teachers and lovers of classic literature!

Dickens Theatre Company's acclaimed stage adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's gothic thriller returns to Stamford Corn Exchange Theatre in January 2027.

London, 1888. A thick Fitzrovia fog cloaks the city. In the shadows, a sinister figure stalks the streets. A young child is brutally attacked. Who is this "sneering Satan" and will he strike again?

Performed by an ensemble cast of just six actors, this fast-paced production brings Stevenson's dark and dangerous Victorian world vividly to life through inventive storytelling, atmospheric staging and dynamic multi-roling performance.

Part of DTC's highly acclaimed Revision on Tour programme (alongside Macbeth and A Christmas Carol), this accessible adaptation is specifically designed to support GCSE English study while remaining entertaining for all audiences.

All matinee performances also include the option to stay for a free 20-minute post-show Q&A with the cast and director, a hugely popular addition for school groups, giving students the chance to ask questions, deepen their understanding of the novella and explore the production further.

School group rates available £17 per student, for a school booking phone into 01780 766455 or email [email protected]

Run time: 1 hour 45 minutes (including interval). Allow an extra 20 minutes if you're staying for the post-show Q&A.
