Robert Louis Stevensons allegorical tale was published in 1886. Jeffrey Hatchers new adaptation posits that Hyde dwells in each of usand underlines the point by having each one of the supporting cast take a turn inhabiting the character. The only person not playing Hyde is Bradford Farwell, who takes Jekyll from insouciance to the maddening realization that hes been outsmarted by someone who thinks with his fists. Farwell makes a splendid Jekyll, all hubris and aristocratic bearing. This production pays a hefty ransom in homage to director R. Hamilton Wrights other inspirationthe rogues gallery of Universal movie monsters from the 1930s. Its all the stuff of brilliance, and long after the boogeyman fable ends, the shows basic question still hangs in the air: What are you hiding? KEVIN PHINNEY
