The Island of Doctor Moreau

by Eric Hissom

An stirring one-man show, based on the H.G. Wells novel. Faithful to the source, but not slavishly so, resonating deeply with contemporary attitudes and aesthetics. Fast-paced and suspenseful, yet poignant, philosophically probing, and darkly humorous. A single actor brings to life the entire cast of bizarre characters in a tour-de-force performance.

    Having produced this one man play at the Cape May Stage, I can say that this was a play I could watch over and over again. And I did. :)

    Clever, frightening, entertaining, compelling.
