The Strange Case 2024 Tribeca Festival Tribeca

On May 1, 1517 — now referred to as Evil May Day — riots broke out in London as a response to an influx of immigrant workers. Eighty years later, a play was written that includes some of these events. The play, called Sir Thomas More, wasn't published or performed at the time, quite possibly because it was censored. This speech from the play is delivered to the rampaging crowd by Thomas.. Confronting the world refugee crisis head-on in highly dramatic scenes that refuse to let go, Brandt Andersen's etched-with-an-axe 'The Strangers' Case' is a human disaster movie that passionately describes a chain reaction of real-life horror.

Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde[a] is an 1886 Gothic horror novella by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson. It follows Gabriel John Utterson, a London-based legal practitioner who investigates a series of strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll, and a murderous criminal named Edward Hyde.
