Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
Hugh Wants to Help
por
Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic story follows Dr. Henry Jekyll, a respected London physician whose experiments reveal a darker side of his nature in the form of Mr. Edward Hyde. The tale explores the unsettling divide between public respectability and private desire, as Jekyll’s attempt to control his transformation grows increasingly dangerous.
In this radio dramatization, the story’s suspense is carried through dialogue, performance, and sound, bringing its Victorian setting and mounting sense of dread to life. The contrast between Jekyll’s measured manner and Hyde’s menace gives the central conflict a vivid dramatic shape.
Gothic and psychologically tense, the story offers a chilling portrait of a man losing control of the boundary between his two selves.
