Synopsis: Jekyll & Hyde: The Musical is based on The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, written by Robert Louis Stevenson. It tells the story of Henry Jekyll, a well-meaning but misguided scientist who develops a serum that he believes can separate good from evil in a person so that evil can be neutralized and good can prevail. He seeks permission from the leadership of the hospital to perform a test on a patient but is rebuffed. He then decides to perform the experiment on himself, leading to tragic consequences.
The musical contains several well-known numbers, including “Lost in the Darkness,” “Façade,” “This is the Moment,” “Someone Like You” and “Confrontation.”
PLEASE NOTE: The roles of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde will be played by the same actor.
English/British accents will be needed, but they can be from any part of the British Isles or Ireland.
Principal and key supporting roles are:
