Hanover High School Presents Jekyll & Hyde This April

By:
The award-winning drama program at Hanover High School will bring the Gothic thriller Jekyll & Hyde to the stage for its spring musical.

The show will have 7 p.m. performances on Friday, April 8 and Saturday, April 9 with a 2 p.m. matinee on Sunday, April 10. Advance tickets are $8 for adults and $7 for students and can be purchased at the HHS office from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. Tickets will be $10 for adults and $9 for students at the door.

The show is sponsored by OX Paper Tube & Core, Inc. and Jim's Steaks South Street.

Jekyll & Hyde features music by Frank Wildhorn, lyrics by Wildhorn, Leslie Bricusse and Steve Cuden and book by Leslie Bricusse. The show's score was nominated for a Grammy and the 1997 Broadway production was nominated for a Tony. The show is the longest running show in the history of the Plymouth Theater.

Featuring the hit song "This Is The Moment," the show has been on four major tours, had more than 100 international productions and 32 recordings in 28 different languages. "This Is The Moment" has been performed at the Olympics, the World Series, the Super Bowl, the 1996 Democratic Convention and the presidential inauguration of George W. Bush.

With beautiful ballads and big group numbers, Jekyll and Hyde brings the epic tale of good and evil to the stage. The show also has spawned a group of devoted fans who follow the show and call themselves "Jekkies."

Jekyll & Hyde tells the story 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. The story unfolds in gripping fashion with unforgettable songs like "Someone Like You" and "A New Life."

More than 60 students will take the stage under the direction of Rene Staub. Isaac Silver will play the title role while Bailey Kenworthy plays John Utterson, Jekyll's lawyer and friend. Madison Maloney (Emma Carew) and Genevieve Moorhead (Lucy Harris) play the women in love with Jekyll. Colten Ehrhart plays Sir Danvers Carew, Emma's father.

Other featured players include Alexandra Rapp (Lady Beaconsfield), Michael Peterson Jr. (Simon Stride), Finn Johnson (Lord Savage/Spider), Khalique Bohde (Bishop of Basingstoke), Jarrett Klunk (Sir Archibald Proops), Brent Hill (General Lord Glossop), Sam Vogel (Nellie), Nick Seymour (Poole) and Alexander Kirk (Bisset).
