Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — Festspielgelände auf dem Schlossberg, Breisach

London, late 19th century. The rigid codes of virtue and morality of the Victorian age shape the city's character. It is in the Soho district that trouble begins. A strikingly violent man first terrorises London's entertainment quarter, then the whole city. One name keeps coming up: Mr. Hyde. Yet the police cannot catch him - his trail vanishes without explanation. Until one day it leads to the house of Dr. Jekyll. The ambitious young physician insists that Hyde poses no danger. Until Hyde commits murder. A suspicion suddenly takes hold: are Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde one and the same person?

A pursuit of the riddle of good and evil - with suspense, a touch of gothic dread, a hint of frivolity, and dry humour.

Stage adaptation and direction: Peter W. Hermanns
