How far would you go to escape your demon?
Aquila Theatre brings a bold and compelling new adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s timeless tale—a thrilling and profound psychodrama that explores the fractured self and the perilous pursuit of control. Dr. Henry Jekyll, driven by the belief that he can separate the good and evil within, unleashes a terrifying double life through his creation of Edward Hyde. What begins as a daring experiment spirals into a desperate struggle as the boundary between the two identities disintegrates. In the bifurcated mind, reason fractures and shadows rise. With Aquila’s signature physicality and inventive staging, this haunting re-imagining dives deep into the human psyche, asking timeless—and urgent—questions about morality, repression, and the darkness we all carry within.
