In an effort to make the writer to understand what it means to be insane, he restrains him in a straight jacket. Then he pulls out a scalpel; he is the serial killer.

DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE
Mariemont Players

[Walton Creek]

Directed by jef brown
Produced by Pam Kaesemeyer and Amy Stier

Cast: Natasha Boeckmann, Ryan Bowron, John Conrard, Kevin Gleason, Raia Hirsch, Wayne Kirsch & Jeanette Tacon

A new and shocking version of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic tale of depravity, lust, love and horror. On the fog-bound streets of Victorian-era London, Henry Jekyll’s experiments have brought forth his other self—Edward Hyde, a sensualist and villain free to commit the sins Jekyll is too civilized to comprehend. When Hyde meets a woman who stirs his interest, Jekyll fears for her life and decides to end his experiments. But Hyde has other ideas, and so the two sides battle each other in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse to determine who shall be the master and who his slave.
