Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Comes to the Kenworthy Accompanied by Live Orchestra
August 15, 2017
The 1920 classic silent film, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, accompanied by a new original score, takes to the screen at the Kenworthy Performing Arts Centre on September 28, 2017 at 7:00 PM.
After last spring’s successful premiere of his score accompanying The Phantom of the Opera, Dylan Champagne has returned to create a new score for Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. A LIVE 8-piece ensemble, directed by Al Gemberling and performing Champagne’s composition, will accompany the silent film.
In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, John Barrymore plays the humanitarian Dr. Henry Jekyll, who becomes obsessed with the notion of separating the good and evil impulses within every man. To this end, he develops a potion that unleashes his own darker side: the demonic Mr. Hyde.
“In some ways Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is an ancient story that we tell over and over again; a story about attempting to overcome humankind’s baser and animalistic origins,” said Champagne.
Tickets are on sale now at the Kenworthy website and will be available at the door. General admission is $20. Student admission is $10.
