Courtney Sikora as "Lucy"
Why does a wise man take leave of his senses? Where is that fine line where sanity melts? When does intelligence give way to madness? These questions and more are explored in Greater Lewisville CT’s production of Jekyll & Hyde: The Musical, now playing weekends through Hallowe’en.
The production sees Brad Stephens in the dual role of Dr. Henry Jekyll, a brilliant scientist whose experiments unwittingly unleash his own dark side, wreaking havoc in the streets of late 19-century London as the savage, maniacal Edward Hyde. Stephens co-stars with a talented cast including Courtney Sikora as Lucy, Michelle Foard as Emma, Damon Wadyko as Utterson and E. Scott Arnold as Danvers.
