Der seltsame Fall des Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde
An extraordinary multimedia theater experience in an adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson.
London, 1886: The aspiring Dr. Henry Jekyll experiments with forbidden substances and transforms into the malevolent version of himself: Dr. Hyde. Suddenly, London is plagued by bestial murders...
In his timeless classic, Robert Louis Stevenson (Treasure Island) offers an intelligent-subversive critique of the repressed Victorian society, whose suppressed passions form the tragic foundation of his main character. Despite - or because of - the social-critical undertones, his "Dr. Jekyll" became a great success during his lifetime. With it, a classic of horror literature emerged, and it remains the most prominent representative of the "doppelgänger motif," which has influenced countless comic, film, and literary characters.
The MediaBühne presents the world-famous plot in an intellectually expanded version, featuring top-notch actors, fascinating animated films, and accompanied by an opulent soundtrack. This vocal intensity-driven projection art theater is a dazzling panopticon that is situated between theater cinema, live synchronization, and staged readings with animated films.
