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.”
English/British accents will be needed, but they can be from any part of the British Isles or Ireland.

MISS BENNET: CHRISTMAS AT PEMBERLEY
AUDITIONS OCTOBER 4 & 5
Show dates: December 3 - 13, 2026
Director: Louise Schneberger
While the cast list indicates ages that are young, the director will cast actors who are similar in age, so don’t let the age discourage you from auditioning!
And as the writers of the show say, “We encourage diverse casting- Jane Austin belongs to everyone.”
Synopsis: A sequel to Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice, set in 1815, the play showcases the Bennet girls together at Christmas. Lizzy and Mr. Darcy have decided to host Christmas at their estate, Pemberley, this year, and Lizzy’s sister’s show up a few days early to prepare for the holiday. Jane is seven months pregnant, Lydia is still pretending that her marriage to Mr. Wickham is not a total disaster, and Mary is lonelier than ever stuck at home with their parents and youngest sister, Kitty. When Mr. Darcy’s cousin Arthur De Bourgh shows up at Pemberley to spend the holiday with them, Mary’s life suddenly gets more interesting. She and Arthur seem to have all the same interests and find that they enjoy talking to one another. Could this be love? Mary and Arthur’s relationship seems to be progressing well until Arthur’s cousin, Lady Anne, shows up and tells him that they are engaged to be married. Arthur is confused, Mary feels betrayed, and everyone in the house decides to work together to fix this situation and bring Arthur and Mary back together. It takes a Christmas miracle, a lot of communication, and a touch of forgiveness to convince Mary and Arthur that they are meant for each other and can choose to be in love.
Characters
Mary Bennet (20) Finally coming into her own, she is no longer the plain, boring girl she once was. She has a fire in her now. She is intelligent, curious and lively, but her family only sees her as a future spinster. She does not suffer fools. She wants to live.
Arthur DeBourgh (25) A studious, unsociable only child who has never been around women or large families. He is a loner who prefers books to people. He has recently inherited a large estate and has no idea what to do next.
Elizabeth Darcy (22) married to Mr. Darcy. Confident, charming and witty. She makes a fun and surprising lady of the house. She is best friends with her sister Jane.
Fitzwilliam Darcy (30) A loving, generous and smart (if a little stiff) husband. He is quiet and vigilant and thus sees what others often miss. He knows what being lovelorn is like.
Jane Bingley (24) married to Mr. Bingley. She is seven months pregnant with her fist child and is sweet and optimistic as ever. The kindest heart in the house.
Charles Bingley (25) Gracious, happy and ever focused on the love of his life, Jane. A good friend and always ready with a smile.
Lydia Wickham (17) Flirtatious, youthful, self-centered. Her marriage to Mr. Wickham is a sham but she will not admit this. She is the person you want to have at your party: energetic, engaging, unstoppable.
Anne DeBourgh (20) Only daughter of the late Lady Catherine Debourgh. She lived in her mother’s very large shadow, never having to ask for anything or speak for herself her entire life. Judgmental and impatient, just like her mother.
