A fright-night feast last night with the return of Don’t Go Into The Cellar! Theatre Company.

Actor Jonathan Goodwin had us all on the edge of our seats with an expertly eerie adapted performance of Robert Louis Stevenson’s spinechiller Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Effortlessly portraying all of the characters, not just the main protagonists, but also the Lawyer Gabriel Utterson and house servant Mr Poole.

We all marvelled not only at his repertoire of voices and accents, but at his skill at building suspense and horror.

After the interval we were then treated to a performance of another Stevenson horror classic, The Body Snatcher. Taking us to the dark underworld of Victorian times, what lengths will those procuring the gruesome supply of cadavers to medical students go?

Huge thanks for yet another astonishing theatrical performance, and we hope Don’t Go Into The Cellar! Theatre Company didn’t give you nightmares!
