by Kelly Rogers Flynt - Jun 14, 2026
The stars fill the skies. Redwoods surround every side. And music fills the air. These are the signs that Woodminster Summer Musicals are back for another season of theater under the stars. The season kicks off with JEKYLL & HYDE, a grand production of a rarely produced show. The skies roll with thunder which is echoed by audience applause.
