I love your version of Henry Jekyll and Edward Hyde, Keiran, which have proper RP accents. This thing has been bothering me everytime discovering new adaptations of the musical itself; 'Why do they all have American accents, when they aren't Americans at all and the story's set in London?!'. Let Jekyll and Hyde be English, or maybe being someone from Edinburgh (like the creator Robert L. Stevenson) who grew up correcting his accent would be fine, too (RP-speaking Henry {the Edinburgh boy who grew up witnessing grown-ups enjoying their disgusting façade} vs. Edinburgh-accented Hyde {who'll stop at nothing to end the façade in Henry's life by taking action on behalf of the young boy who grew up} - Oooh, that I got to witness in my life!)!
