3Step into the shadows of Victorian London, where science meets obsession and love battles darkness. With a soaring pop-rock score by Frank Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse, this gripping musical reimagines Robert Louis Stevenson’s iconic tale of duality and desire. Follow Dr. Henry Jekyll, a brilliant scientist whose quest to cure humanity unleashes a terrifying alter ego - the savage Mr. Hyde. Torn between two women and haunted by his own creation, Jekyll’s descent into madness is as thrilling as it is tragic. A gothic masterpiece packed with passion, suspense, and unforgettable music, Jekyll & Hyde promises a night of drama, danger, and dazzling performances. Conceived for the stage by Steve Cudden & Frank Wildhorn. This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International. All authorised performance materials are also supplied by MTI www.MTIShows.co.uk
4This show is ideal for those young people who want to really shine and have their own moment on stage and also for those young people who would love to perform but just feel really nervous and anxious. We perform in an informal, gentle, nurturing and supportive environment with our usual rule, you don’t have to perform if you don’t want to. Some of our previous performers' parents said, "Mila has had a go at the golden ticket show twice and she really enjoyed it. It was a great first experience on the stage, super supportive and encouraging. No one was forced to do anything they didn’t want to, and it was a really nice informal with no pressure. The perfect size stage too". "Clara absolutely loves doing the golden ticket show. She’s done it twice and each time she’s had such a confidence boost after performing in a supportive and non pressured environment. Since the last one she hasn’t stopped talking about what song she wants to sing next time (it changes every time she hears a song she likes )"
