The team behind the successful Tales from the Blackjack are returning to Preston after having gained acclaim across the the UK.

Thunder Road Theatre will perform their take on Jekyll & Hyde this June, before also making an appearance at this year’s Tringe. Featuring MEN Award winner Alex Moran and Christopher Ward, ‘Hyde’ promises to be a physical blend of high energy and contemporary storytelling.

Alex Moran said:  “We were really pleased with the reception we got for Blackjack, we took it to the Buxton Fringe where I won best actor and the show won best production, which was great!’

‘Hyde is slightly different, in that it isn’t a solo show. I worry about getting typecast, so I like to be able to do a solo show, an ensemble piece and also a two-hander like Hyde’

The original production is set in 19th century Edinburgh, and sees Dr Jekyll returns to ‘Auld Reekie’, a respectable physician, while his old friend Utterson can’t help suspect that something is amiss in the Jekyll house.
