ATOSA Damen Dr. Jeck Verkleidung

Product Information

Louise has a beautiful clear speaking and singing voice, and this came over in your many songs and your interaction with Jekyll/Hyde. You looked the perfect part in your costume and we could believe in the strong-willed character that you portrayed, we could feel the emotion between you and Dr Jekyll, we could see that you would be by his side through all the problems that he had. This was an excellent performance.

MOUSTACHE: should be fuller and if possible, using moustache wax train clumps of hair over the mouth in a sinister manner. If you have a long side to your moustache, then use some of the wax on the finger tips make an exaggerated upward curl to the end to give a touch of swagger to the whole creation. Very disciplined supportive playing from the orchestra - balance between singers and musicians was very good. The textured score was well performed and instrumentalists captured the atmosphere of the music in key moments so very well - for instance the string accompaniment as Jekyll/Hyde writhed in conflict.This was a strong and believable character that you had created and we could see that you thought of Edward as the son you never had, you interacted well with the other members of the cast and you were the father to Emma, you stayed in charterer and you gave a confident performance.

Only small roles but all essential to the story, from the pompous General, the holier than thou Bishop, the sanctimonious snobby Lady, and the rich pompous and semi hypocritic Sir Archibald and Lord Savage, you all played your parts well with good strong voices and confidant acting you all created believable characters. Well done This adaptation turns the story of Jekyll and Hyde on its head. Rather than following the story that is well known, this “reimagining” focuses on Mrs. Jekyll, one year after Dr. Jekyll’s death. The story still utilises the transformation of Mrs. Jekyll to Lady Hyde relying on the potions created by the late Dr. but it goes much further – exploring the inequality faced by women in that era. Throughout the first act, there is an unexplained “link” to the modern day that makes a frequent appearance – and it is that “link” that forms the basis of much of the second act which takes the story on an unexpected twist; pushing the audience to face and consider more current inequalities.A clear portrayal of the very selfish lord - beneath the seeming charm there was a strong streak of meanness. There are so many facets to this character but I felt that you had approached this role with such thoughtful preparation, exploring the drive and emotional journey of the man with obvious intelligence. You have an impactful yet understated presence on stage - this really worked, for the personas of Jekyll and Hyde were presented through you in such a way that we were able to really connect with the dynamic between the two. In your first number your humanity was captured as you sang to your father - our empathy was drawn in immediately. This is important as we need to like you as you follow this tortuous and dangerous road. But you also portrayed Henry's desperation for scientific advance and an answer to the big question of good and evil - this desperation became effectively compulsive. Your energy as Hyde was both repulsive and intriguing - and I think we were all very unsettled by the impactful delivery of those provocative words as you felt so 'alive' in your new found persona. Physicality matched this - transition to Hyde was outstanding: the jerking, tormented body movements alongside a deep vocal delivery and glazed, manic eyes gave us a window into your tormented mind. You said little but sustained your portrayal of the older gentleman with good focus and reactive facial play. In his 1990 portrayal of the title character, in Jekyll and Hyde, Michael Caine plays up the bodily grotesqueness of the character, making him more ogre than human. It’s a departure from Stevenson’s notion that Hyde’s deformity is sensed, but not quite visible.

Very strong posture and some lovely facial reaction during the Board scene - I loved your spiteful smirks. Just be careful to maintain balance of play in your vocal delivery. Notes on any Special Requirements andhelpful hintson various shows, e.g., stilts for “Barnum” or flying harness for “Peter Pan.” The Jekyll & Hyde 2024 schools tour will be seen by over 10,000 pupils in secondary schools across 12 Theatre Nation Partnership areas in England, to grow and sustain new audiences for live theatre and create more opportunities to engage in the arts.As its title suggests, the story is indeed strange. It’s bound up in notions of self-estrangement, and the uncanny, which Freud describes as the familiar made strange. Inspired by a feverish nightmare, the story is about competing desires, and what might happen if we could split the good and evil parts of the self into separate identities. Well done to stage designer Matthew Jeanes, who created a simple but effective set, with two sets of steps leading to a central upper level, all scene changes were carried out quietly and smoothly taking us from London Streets to Dr Jekyll’s laboratory, Office, Lucy’s Apartment and the Red Rat Public House. Your strong stage presence enabled you to portray the man who dislikes Jekyll so much. Excellent vocal delivery as you chaired the Board. Kristy has a powerful voice which you used to perfection in your songs, and your interaction with Henry Jekyll was so real that we could believe in your character and the emotion you showed in your singing and acting was confident, this was a natural performance.
