The creative team has been announced for the upcoming world premiere production of Gary McNair’s stage adaptation of Jekyll & Hyde, which runs at the Reading Rep Theatre from 10-29 October. 

Michael Fentiman will direct McNair’s captivating and comic adaptation, with production design by Max Jones, lighting by Emily Irish, costume supervision by Fran Levin, and casting by Sarah Hawkins (which will be announced at a later date).

It has also been announced that all tickets will be priced under £20 as part of the theatre’s recent ticketing strategy to combat the cost of living crisis’ effect on accessibility to theatre. 

Artistic director of Reading Rep, Paul Stacey, said: ‘“It has been an extraordinary ten years of making theatre in Reading, and this upcoming season celebrates every artist, audience and team member who got us to this point. Accessibility and connection is at the heart of Reading Rep. We refuse to let the price point of our tickets be a barrier for our audiences, especially when the cost of living across the UK is so excruciatingly high. All tickets for all shows will be under £20. 10% of all our tickets remain free for those underserved in the arts, and there will be 210 £5 tickets per show for Under 30s. This season promises to radically engage with our future, whilst memorialising our decade long past “.
