Chad Winters, instructor of theatre, elaborated on the plot of this production.
“The story is adapted from Robert Louis Stevenson’s novella, allowing our community to experience this ageless story in a new and fresh way. Glyn Maxwell has adapted the story for the stage with some fun twists. Unlike the novella, this stage adaptation has a strong female presence. In the original story Lady Gabrielle Utterson is Gabriel John Utterson, a close loyal friend of Jekyll,” Winters described.
DeJuan James, a senior and elementary education major, was cast as Jekyll. He agreed with Winters on the fun nature of the show.
