A true musical theatre phenomenon, "Jekyll & Hyde" attracted legions of loyal fans even before the show began its smash-hit Broadway run.

An evocative tale of the epic battle between good and evil, "Jekyll & Hyde" is based on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic story about a brilliant doctor whose experiments with human personality create a murderous counterpart. Convinced 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 of late 19th century London as the savage maniacal Edward Hyde.

"Jekyll & Hyde" is pure pulse-pounding theatre, with that same macabre combination of fun and fright that fuels such classics as "Sweeney Todd" and "Phantom of the Opera." The lush, romantc pop score from the composing team of Frank Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse includes the hit songs "This Is the Moment" and "Someone Like You."

Featuring an all-local cast of singers, dancers, and actors, this bold new musical is the perfect match for the grand atmosphere of Abilene's Landmark Theatre. Directed by Barry Smoot, the Paramount's Artistic Director.
