“Man is, on the whole, less good than he imagines himself… Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is.” So wrote psychoanalyst C.G. Jung, in 1938. Jeffrey Hatcher of Edmonds’ Driftwood Players agrees. In his inventive retelling of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic thriller, the transformations of Hyde deepen and intensify as the conflict of good vs. evil, civilization vs. savagery is played out to its devastating conclusion.

Smart, violent and intense, this version is suggested for adults. Performances are Oct. 28-30 at 9:13 p.m. Directed by Scott Francis, “Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde” features Terrence Boyd, Wes Chick, Greg Cochran, Lorrie Fargo, Kelsey Hamilton and Kirk Peterson
