| Designer's Notes : Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, produced
by the San Diego Repertory Theatre was based on Robert Louis Stephenson's
novel The Strange Case
of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, adapted by director and co-artistic director
Doug Jacobs. The adaptation was Doug's first production in the new
Lyceum Theatre. Slovak scenographer, Ladislav Vychodil, was brought
to the United States to design the scenery. Doug described his image
of the overall feeling for the play as 'Jack the Ripper's London at
its worst.' The setting included a mix of over 30 interior and exterior
locations. Professor Vychodil's scenery was highly presentational and
fluid. The lighting design included low voltage high intensity lights,
black lights, and mercury vapor lights in addition to traditional lighting
instruments. |
