The legend arrives! Jekyll And Hyde,
the phenomenal musical that has fascinated
audiences around the world,
comes to the KED stage. Frank
Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse have
taken Robert Louis Stevenson’s dark
tale of good and evil and turned it into
a powerful musical experience for
modern audiences. With stunning special
effects and such soaring songs as “This Is The Moment”,
“Someone Like You”, “A New Life” and the raucous “Bring On
the Men”, Jekyll And Hyde has developed the world’s most devoted
group of fans.
Carl and Phil decide that the
ladder to success at the post
office is missing a few
rungs. They know that big
money is waiting for people
with entrepreneurial spirit
and sound business judgment.
They have lots of the spirit but little of the judgment and their
new gourmet health food restaurant flounders. Zippy’s, a popular
cross-town spot, has been crowded ever since Cy Manamalancia, a
notorious mobster, was shot there—and that was over twenty years
ago. What if someone could get murdered in their restaurant?
Hummm! A delicious comedy that will leave you rolling in the aisles.
TINTYPES Mar. 21 - April 19, 2008
This nostalgic but thrillingly subversive revue
takes us back to turn of the century
America, when the innocent, slower-paced
days of ice cream socials and hoop skirts
are giving way to a bustling world of automobiles,
electricity and the telephone, of
American optimism and ingenuity. The
story of these changing times blazes to life
in a tuneful, high-spirited brew of popular
songs from 1890 to 1917, performed by
five archetypes of the period: Anna Held,
the beautiful music hall star; Emma
Goldman, the notorious socialist; a black domestic worker; a Chaplinesque
Russian immigrant; and the outrageous Teddy Roosevelt, the
youngest man ever to be elected President. “Tintypes” is an epic work about the end of an era
America’s premier comic playwright makes
another hilarious foray into the world of
modern relationships. Jake, a novelist who
is more successful with fiction than with life,
faces a marital crisis by daydreaming about
the women in his life. The wildly comic and
sometimes moving flashbacks played in his
mind are interrupted by visitations from
actual females. “One of Neil Simon’s best.”
