Lyric Stage presents Jekyll & Hyde, a dramatic and intense musical, at the Lyric Studios Space from March 28 to April 19. Tickets are now on sale.
Based on the classic story by Robert Louis Stevenson, the performance features a thrilling score of pop-rock hits from multi-Grammy and Tony-nominated Frank Wildhorn and double-Oscar- and Grammy-winning Leslie Bricusse.
The story is an evocative tale of two men – one, a doctor, passionate and romantic; the other, a terrifying madman – and two women – one, beautiful and trusting; the other, beautiful and trusting only herself. Both women are in love with the same man, and both are unaware of his dark secret. A devoted man of science, Dr. Henry Jekyll is driven to find a chemical breakthrough that can solve some of mankind’s most challenging medical dilemmas.
Rebuffed by the powers that be, Jekyll decides to make himself the subject of his own experimental treatments. In the process, he accidentally unleashes his inner demons along with the man that the world would come to know as Mr. Hyde. The production is rated PG-13.
