Jekyll & Hyde The Musical – Presented by Lithgow Musical Society
Sun 21 May - Sat 3 June

Jekyll and Hyde is a musical that takes you on a journey into the depths of the human soul. It is based on the classic horror story by Robert Louis Stevenson, with a powerful pop-rock score by Frank Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse.
Dr. Jekyll is a brilliant but tormented scientist who experiments on himself to cure his father’s madness. He unleashes Mr. Hyde, a savage and ruthless killer who terrorizes the streets of London. Jekyll must fight to keep Hyde at bay, while also protecting his love Emma and his friend Lucy, a doomed prostitute.
Will Jekyll prevail over his inner demon, or will Hyde destroy him and everyone he cares about?
Join us at the Union Theatre to find out…
