October 17–November 4

In this Jeffrey Hatcher adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson novella, the dark Hyde comes out and is evil beyond measure, though not entirely evil. Hatcher also shows that Jekyll isn’t the pure soul we believe him to be. This play honors the original but adds a more complex (and disturbing) interpretation of the dual nature of man. Parental guidance is suggested for this show. Atlantic Stage Theatre, 79th Avenue and U.S. 17. Visit website for dates and times. $10–27.50. (877) 287-8587, www.atlanticstage.com
