Footlighters Inc.
Runs Oct. 5-21
Stained Glass Theatre [Newport]

Directed by Amanda Emmons Shumate
Music directed by Alan Masters

Cast: Shawn Toadvine as Jekyll/Hyde, Emily Martin as Lucy Harris, Gregory Good as Gabriel John Utterson, Taylor Isabel Winkleski as Emma Carew, Bryan Greaves as Mr. Simon Stride, Gary Rogers as Sir Danvers Carew, Russ McGee as Bishop of Basingstoke, Mitch Ruth as General Lord Glossop, Dana Kiser as Honorable Archibald Proops, Susan Schapiro as Lady Beaconsfield, Greg Moore as Lord Savage, Cathy Alter as Nellie, Karl Bolinger as Spider &, Gary Herman as Poole

Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic thrill novel comes to life on stage through this twisted musical depicting the epic struggle between good and evil. Just like with night and day or the yin and the yang, the light must overcome the darkness. The dramatic tale of Jekyll and Hyde tells the story of a genial English doctor whose laboratory experiments create a dangerous alter ego, leading the doctor through a progression of passion, despair, violence and destruction. The beautiful score features hauntingly familiar Tony-Award winning numbers such as “This is the Moment” and “Someone Like You,” and takes you through a journey where you will question your realities, fear your nightmares, and ultimately forcing the life-long decision of whether good will prevail.
