JEKYLL & HYDE to Open at Rose Center Theater
Frank Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse's musical thriller comes to Orange County,
This June, Jekyll & Hyde the Musical will come to The Rose Center Theater, for a limited nine-performance engagement, June 12 through June 28, 2026.
Based on Robert Louis Stevenson's iconic novella, with book and lyrics by Leslie Bricusse and music by Frank Wildhorn, Jekyll & Hyde follows Dr. Henry Jekyll, a brilliant and compassionate physician consumed by an audacious dream: to rid humankind of its darkest impulses. When Jekyll dares to test his dangerous serum on himself, that dream becomes a nightmare.
What emerges is Edward Hyde: a terrifying alter ego of unrestrained passion and violence. As Hyde's power grows and Jekyll's grip on reality shatters, two women hold his fractured soul in the balance. Emma, the woman he vows to cherish. Lucy, the woman Hyde cannot resist. Their fates intertwine in a heart-pounding struggle between love and lust, hope and horror, good and evil.
Frank Wildhorn's score includes some of the most celebrated songs in the Broadway canon: "This Is the Moment," "Someone Like You," "A New Life," and "Confrontation."
At the Rose Center Theater in Westminster, CA, they come to life with a cast of Orange County's finest performers under the direction and musical direction of Tim Nelson, with choreography by Diane Makas and Jennifer Matthews.
