This month we returned to Maddermarket. “But that’s a venue you’ve done before!” I hear you cry. Well, actually, last time we when we saw a show at The Maddermarket we were in The Emmerson Studio, this time we were in the main auditorium.
So, September’s outing went something like this…
Production: Jekyll & Hyde
Venue: The Maddermarket
The auditorium seats about 300 people, lovely little bar, serves Guinness and ice cream. Cushty.
Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic, has been interestingly adapted to bring women to the front. Dr Stevenson finds herself in charge of the mysterious case of Jekyll & Hyde.
It was a good show. Clever use of characters, setting and lighting to maintain the originality of the text, whilst managing to produce something just a little bit different. Enjoyed it.
