Chemical Imbalance is a darkly comic adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.  The shy Henry Jekyll is the unmarried son of a wealthy Victorian.  In his laboratory, he conducts secret experiments in an attempt to isolate the organic component that determines whether we are controlled by the good or evil inside us.

Finding a potion he believes will work, he tries it out on himself to disastrous effect. His evil half is an alter ego named Mr. Hyde, who emerges to wreck havoc.  In the end, a well meaning Jekyll pays the price for the crimes committed by Hyde, and is punished for his own sin of tampering with nature.

This is a fast-paced romp!
