JEKYLL & HYDE

Frank Wildhorn’s international hit—Jekyll & Hyde– has been produced in more than 25 countries and translated into multiple languages. Renowned for its sweeping score, gothic spectacle, and demanding dual leading role, it remains one of the most complex contemporary dramatic musicals. Our production of this classic tale asked audiences to question their roles in society–where comparison-culture and hate dictate our actions and where intelligence without compassion can lead us astray.

Based on Robert Louis Stevenson's 1886 novella "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," the musical follows Dr. Henry Jekyll, a London physician determined to separate humanity's good and evil impulses through scientific experimentation. When a hospital board refuses to approve financing and test subjects for his proposed research, Jekyll tests his formula on himself, unleashing Edward Hyde, his darker and increasingly violent alter ego. As Hyde's murderous impulses grow, Jekyll struggles to maintain control while navigating his relationships with his devoted fiancée, Emma, and Lucy, a vulnerable yet strong-willed woman he meets at a seedy London club.

BARE: a pop opera

An electric, contemporary pop opera—BARE—follows a group of students at a Catholic boarding school as they grapple with issues of sexuality, identity, and the future. Peter and Jason have fallen in love with each other, but Jason—a popular athlete—fears losing his status if he is discovered. Nadia—Jason’s unpopular sister—is envious of Ivy, a beautiful girl with a questionable reputation. As the students attempt to put on a production of Romeo and Juliet, tensions flare, self-doubt simmers, and God’s path seems more difficult to find than ever. BARE rings with the sounds of youthful repression and revolt. With heart-pounding lyrics and a cast of complex characters, BARE is a provocative, fresh, and honest look at the dangers of baring our identities and the consequences of remaining hidden.
