The Media Theatre - Jekyll & Hyde

By Robert Louis Stevenson

September 29 - October 31

Jekyll & Hyde is an evocative tale of the epic battle between good and evil, based on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic story about a doctor whose experiments with human personality create a murderous counterpart. Covinced the cure for his father's mental illness lies in the separation of Man's evil nature from his good, Dr. Henry Jekyll unwittingly unleashes his own dark side, wreaking havoc in the streets os late 19th century London as the maniacal Edward Hyde.

Aside from the classic story's consistent relevance and general popularity, the musical's score empowered this version to run for four years on Broadway. Songs include "Someone Like You" and the extremely popular anthem "This is the Moment".
