Gothic musical takes stage at Comtra

CRANBERRY TWP — Murder and chaos are pitted against love and virtue in the sweeping gothic musical “Jekyll & Hyde” running through Oct. 29 at the Comtra Theatre, Route 19.

The epic struggle between good and evil comes to life on stage in the musical based on the classic story by Robert Louis Stevenson and featuring a score of pop rock hits from Grammy and Tony Award-nominated Frank Wildhorn and Oscar and Grammy Award-winning Leslie Bricusse.

The tale is of two men, one a passionate and romantic doctor, the other a terrifying madman, and two women, one beautiful and trusting, the other beautiful and trusting no one.

Rebuffed by the powers that be, Dr. Henry Jekyll decides to make himself the subject of his own experimental treatments, accidentally unleashing his inner demons along with the man the world would come to know as Mr. Hyde.

The curtain goes up on the all-adult cast at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

Tickets are $15. Visit comtratheatre.org or call 724-591-8727.
