A Letter from the Director

Dear Actors and Performers,

I am thrilled to announce the auditions for ‘Jekyll & Hyde the Musical’. This rendition of the classic tale will take on a modern edge, incorporating elements not traditionally seen in the show.

Jekyll & Hyde is a gripping tale of duality, following the story of Dr. Henry Jekyll, a brilliant scientist who discovers a way to separate the good and evil within himself. As he delves deeper into his experiment, he unleashes his dark alter ego, Edward Hyde, leading to a series of tragic events.

In this production, we aim to capture the mysterious and haunting nature of the story, infusing it with modern elements reminiscent of Victorian Goth rock. We encourage all ethnicities to audition. The only thing we’re looking for is talented individuals, both adults and teenagers ages 14 and over, to bring these complex characters to life on stage. Please note this show is rated PG-13.

Auditions will be held on June 25 and 26 at Seaquins Ballroom beside Tanger 1 in Bluffton. Please prepare a 32-bar cut of a song that showcases your abilities, and be prepared to read from the script. Headshots and resumes are appreciated, but not required.

I can’t wait to tell this classic tale with you and I look forward to seeing your talent and passion for the stage at auditions.


Warm regards,

Bryce Cofield
Director, 'Jekyll & Hyde the Musical'
