Welcome back to the 205th episode of The Cup which is our a weekly (give or take, TBD, these are unprecedented times) performing arts talk show presented by Cup of Hemlock Theatre. With the theatres on a come back we offer a mix of both reviews of live shows we've seen and continued reviews of prophet productions! For our 205th episode we bring you a Duet Review of Jekyll & Hyde: The Musical in Concert, presented by Doctor Bird Productions. Join Jillian Robinson and Ryan Borochovitz, as they revisit everyone’s favourite spooky musical, praise the whole palette of talented artists, and meditate on the little bit of evil that lurks within us all. Jekyll & Hyde: The Musical in Concert ran at the Meridian Arts Centre (5040 Yonge St, North York, ON) from October 25 to 26, 2024. See the company’s website for more information about the show: https://www.doctorbirdproductions.com/home This review contains many SPOILERS for Jekyll & Hyde, both the musical more broadly and this concert production in particular. It will begin with a general non-spoiler review until the [12:39] mark, followed by a more in-depth/anything goes/spoiler-rich discussion. Even though this production’s run has already come to an end, we’re hopeful that it may someday be revived elsewhere.
