The Marina Company in Lowestoft is set to perform a spine-tingling adaptation of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

After the successful performance of A Christmas Carol last year, the group is excited to present this classic horror story on July 26 and 27.

The play, based on Robert Louis Stevenson's work and a stage adaptation by David Edgar, showcases the shocking transformation of the kind Dr Jekyll into the monstrous Mr Hyde.

The production features an original score by Kasper Larsen, with direction by Joe Kirk, and is produced by The Marina Theatre Trust.

Director Joe Kirk said: "This is a thrilling story about what lurks inside of us, deep down, and what we see when we face ourselves in the mirror."

The play is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.

For those interested in catching the suspenseful performance, tickets can be obtained via the theatre’s website or by contacting the Marina Theatre Box Office.
