ABOUT...

sp logo-black.png

Hi, I'm Mark Stratford and I set up Stratford Productions in 2019 in order to present my solo shows. Currently these are: 

 

The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde - adapted from the novella of the same name by Robert Louis Stevenson

 

Macready! Dickens’ Theatrical Friend - the remarkable story of the great Victorian actor-manager, Macready - the man to whom Charles Dickens dedicated 'Nicholas Nickleby'.

​

Since September 2022 - after a pause over the previous years due to the pandemic - I’ve been touring both shows to various venues and festivals round the UK.

​

My aim now is to continue to reach more audiences around the UK and beyond. The creation of these shows has been a labour of love for me and I feel passionate about telling these fascinating stories to as many people in different places as I can.

Jekyll and Hyde has great relevance to the modern day with its themes of identity and addiction, while Macready! Dickens’ Theatrical Friend is a little-known story of a man who did so much to influence the theatre of today.”
