There'll be comedy, thrills, chaos and delight when award-winning theatre company A Slightly Isolated Dog brings 'Jekyll & Hyde' to the Redland Performing Arts Centre stage in Queensland.
Monsters will come out to play in this completely reworked version of Robert Louis Stevenson's inspired novella. It's an outrageous story of morality, mortality and mayhem – Jekyll is the type to wash and separate his recycling, and put it in the correct bin. Meanwhile, Hyde uses the last of the toilet roll and never replaces it, and drains the shared account to buy cigarettes. Who does that?!
Watch as A Slightly Isolated Dog shakes things up and injects its brand of comedy and entertainment into this classic story.
Hot tip: If you're after a bit of extra fun on the night of the performance at Redland Performing Arts Centre, there's a pre-show soirée from 6:30pm where you can grab nibbles and a drink!
Bringing the show to life is Director Leo Gene Peters, joined by motley crew Ginger, Julie, Bastien, Lily and Philippe.
