Director’s note It is interesting to consider Jekyll and Hyde: the Musical as representing the music theatre genre in its most contemporary form. Its creators make no apology for re-shaping a nineteenth century, neo-gothic horror story into a twentieth century, popular American music theatre piece. Many of the musical’s hit songs would not be out of place on any hit parade, cabaret stage or, in the case of the show’s signature tune, at the opening of an arena spectacular. Many were hits long before the work had a script or reached the stage. These big, emotional ballads - the operatic arias of music theatre - are beloved of auditionees and those of us who are drawn to a show tune like after-show party goers are drawn to an out- of-tune piano with sticky keys. There is something about a power ballad that is irresistible; equally so of the many show stoppers that flow from the composer’s pen or, more likely, computer. Jekyll and Hyde is well aware of this. It applauds it and it celebrates the genre’s capabilities and origins. Wildhorn’s score makes full use of this drawing power. It makes even better use of the public’s taste for a good yarn unspoiled by truth and heightened by all the expectations of the Broadway technique. Robert Louis Stevenson’s original story has been pushed and shoved, expanded, interpreted and adapted to suit contemporary taste. This musical adaptation absorbs an impressive range and number of music theatre thrillers. We are not in the realm of authenticity, nor are we handicapped by faithfulness to era. We are in the entertainment genre where one too many key changes in one too many songs is more than acceptable, where music is aimed at manipulating the emotions not the intellect, where thrill factor can substitute for accuracy and where a good yarn is accompanied by iconic images, both visual and auditory. How we love it and how strangely we allow ourselves to suspend our desire for realism. We surrender instead to a theatrical reality that approaches the operatic. Mozart, Shakespeare, Sondheim step aside. Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde to centre stage. What a thrill you are! Chris Bradtke –8–

Synopsis Act l London, 1885. Dr Henry Jekyll, doctor and research scientist, anguishes over his father’s mental illness. He is obsessed by the belief that he can separate the elements of goodness and evil that are inside every human being. Jekyll presents his case to the conservative Board of Governors of the hospital. His request is rejected. Jekyll’s closest friend and advisor, his lawyer John Utterson, sympathizes. The ill-feeling carries over to the engagement celebration of Jekyll and Emma. Utterson tries to take Jekyll’s mind off his problems by visiting the disreputable ‘The Red Rat’, where he meets Lucy Harris. Jekyll offers his friendship if she needs help. Returning home, Jekyll decides to work late in his laboratory where he decides he will have to be the subject for the experiments resulting in his transformation into Edward Hyde. Lucy visits Jekyll after being injured by a sadistic gentleman named Edward Hyde! Jekyll is horrified. In the seedy London streets, Hyde interrupts a sordid liaison of one of the hospital’s Board of Governors. Hyde batters the hypocrite to death. Hyde has become Jekyll’s avenging angel of death. Act ll Hyde’s rampage of killing continues. Emma, frantic with worry about her fiancé, looks for Jekyll in his laboratory. He returns and is furious so she soothes him, trying to bring him back to the path of reason. Jekyll records that the experiment is out of control. Utterson is also concerned and Jekyll persuades him to fetch the drugs desperately needed to continue his struggle against Hyde. Emma and Lucy sing of their deep but confused feelings for the man they both love. Utterson returns with the drugs to find Hyde who has no option than to reveal himself, whereupon he takes the drugs and reverts back to Jekyll before the horrified eyes of his friend. He believes that with the new drugs he can finally destroy Hyde. After more killing Jekyll is losing the battle of the two halves of his broken soul and they engage in a desperate final battle for supremacy. Back from the edge of death Jekyll stands at the altar with his bride Emma but Hyde once more wells up and takes him over. Emma speaks calmy to Jekyll deep within Hyde who begs to end his suffering and set them all free. (Precis from Leslie Bricusse) –9–
