Deborah Cox Shines In Jekyll & Hyde Headed to Broadway

She’s back with a vengeance. The R&B songstress has found comfort in the stage, and she shines bright like a diamond in this element. Having also played the title role in Aida, she’s back for more taking on the lead, Lucy, in Jekyll & Hyde alongside former American Idol finalist Constantine Maroulis. The production opened in Los Angeles on Feb 12th, and everyone has been raving about her performance. Her voice soars through the musical numbers with ease and grace. We can’t wait to see it on Broadway. It begins its 13-week limited engagement on Broadway April 5th, but you can also catch it on tour right now!

American Idol star and Tony Award® nominee Constantine Maroulis joins with multi-platinum recording artist and Grammy® nominee Deborah Cox to inject new life into the classic tale of good and evil, JEKYLL & HYDE.

After a four-year run on Broadway and multiple world-wide tours, this dark and dangerous love story from Tony® and Grammy Award® nominee Frank Wildhorn and Oscar® and Grammy Award® winner Leslie Bricusse returns with all its classic songs (“This is the Moment,” “A New Life,” “Someone Like You”), now remarkably reinterpreted to suit the powerful and contemporary vocal stylings of its new stars.

Its story, however, remains as timeless as it is irresistible. A devoted man of science, Dr. Henry Jekyll is driven to find a chemical breakthrough that can solve some of mankind’s most challenging medical dilemmas. Rebuffed by the powers that be, he decides to make himself the subject of his own experimental treatments, accidentally unleashing his inner demons along with the man the world would come to know as Mr. Hyde.

This brand new direction and choreography are the work of Tony Award® nominee Jeff Calhoun, who’s behind this season’s breakthrough Broadway hit, Newsies.

Two red-hot stars. One cold-blooded thriller. JEKYLL & HYDE.

No musical has ever held you like this.
