rockfenris2005 - April 2, 2009 01:44 PM (GMT)
On Monday, June 15th Frank Wildhorn's Jekyll & Hyde will return to New York City for the first time in 8 years since its four year, 1500+ performance Broadway run and will be presented in its entirety as a benefit concert for the New York Society for Ethical Culture (NYSEC). Presented by SAW Theatricals/Sarah Melissa Rotker in association with Deborah Blumenthal, Stephanie Leaf, and Phillip Pallitto, the evening will take place at NYSEC's 800-seat concert hall, most recently home to the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, and will feature "Bring on the Men", a song which was not heard in the Broadway production.
Robert Petkoff (Happiness, Fiddler on the Roof) will star in the title roles, with Brooke Sunny Moriber (Parade, The Threepenny Opera, The Wild Party) as Emma, and the concert will introduce Jennifer Hallie Rosen (If This Hat Could Talk with Melba Moore and Stephanie Mills, Man of La Mancha, CATS, Evita, and Camelot), who is making her New York City debut as Lucy. Additional casting will be announced shortly.

Well lets hope this may be the first step to a B'way Revival! :D
(Even though I would prefer a Pimpernel Revival)

Nah, they have to wait until I arrive to direct it. :P
But seriously... if it does happen... for God's sake, no more celebrity stunt casting!!!
I wish I could see this.

Sounds like a good production. Too bad audio, video recordings will most likely not come out of it. I think the only thing that could bring about a revival is if the movie does well in my opinion (if/when it is released).

Brooke Sunny Moriber (Emma) and Jennifer Hallie Rosen (Lucy) from this production will be featured at Jim Caruso’s Cast Party at Birdland next Monday, May 18th, performing songs from the show. Links available from the

Did anyone here see it?
I saw a small clip of the actor playing J&H in dress rehearsal on BWWorld.com... wasn't that impressed...

The fact that the leads needed scores is disturbing.

And scores from MTI.....
EDIT: And no mention of Steve Cuden......

I think the casting was all wrong for this. The woman who played Emma should have played Lucy. I am not a fan of the guy who played J&H.
