'If I am the chief of sinners, I am the chief of sufferers also.' A
series of random nocturnal assaults in the back streets and
alleyways of Victorian London are spreading fear and panic.
Meanwhile, the friends of a highly respected doctor are beginning
to wonder why he goes missing on exactly the same nights… Neil
Bartlett's inventive, brilliantly theatrical adaptation cuts right
to the heart of Robert Louis Stevenson's darkly fascinating tale of
male violence, guilt and privilege. It premiered at Derby Theatre
in 2022, directed by Artistic Director Sarah Brigham, before
transferring to Queen's Theatre Hornchurch. Written for an ensemble
and with several key roles for women, this adaptation will appeal
to any theatre or company looking to thrill their audiences with a
bold new take on this classic tale of murder and mayhem.
