The props, costume, lighting, effects, and set design teams are killing it as much as Hyde is here! (Yes, pun intended)The bit with the umbrellas was perhaps my favorite in this number!
Of the songs/scenes played. This one is personally my most favorite. Such skilled synchronize work and performance from everyone! Also... "Bad new from god, Helga!"
This production is amazeballs. I own the DVD with David Hasslehoff. I've seen thiis produced locally with a local musical production group. Holy cow. These kids.... this school should be PROUD of their drama students.
This particular version was performed at the Page Family Centre for the Performing Arts as part of its 50th anniversary season. It was built to replace the Loveland Theatre, which closed in May 2017. The Loveland Theatre was where the 2016 version was performed (which is on UA-cam). The last production that they did before it closed was Les Miserables in 2017 (which is also on UA-cam). Both the original version of this musical and Les Miserables the year after both won back-to-back awards for their performances.
Let me clarify what I have written in the past about what happens. There are many versions of this story and each one has a different take on the story. This happens to be a High School version that was written by Frank Wildhorn, who composed the music for the musical. In the HS version, Hyde kills the BIshop and the other members of the board of Governors. Then he kills Lucy before eventually killing himself at the end. There is no wedding scene like the Broadway version. In the 1987 version, he kills Danvers Carew but spares a little girl. Then he kills the Board of GOvernors. Lucy gets killed, then Simon Stride (who was Jekyll's love rival who turned the Board of Governors against Jekyll earlier on in the musical. Simon Stride also told Utterson to take Jekyll to the Red Rat (or Dregs in some versions). Lucy worked there and Simon Stride was her boss. Jekyll (as Hyde) kills Lucy. After that he kills Simon Stride at the wedding before killing himself. That is what I understand about what happens each time the show is performed.
The reason that the first version of the song contains headlines about Jack the Ripper is simple. The original stage version was first staged 2 days before the first Jack the Ripper murder. The actor who was playing Jekyll / Hyde was so good at what he was doing, that some people thought that he was the actual Jack the Ripper. Sometimes people get fact and fiction mixed up and that is what happened back then. It was also down to the media fueling the fear of crime during the Victorian age.
Where did you heard this from? No offence at all but I don't think it's correct. The original story of Jekyll and Hyde wad published in 1885, and the jack the ripper killings started in 1888. The musical adaptation of the story of Jekyll and Hyde was only first premiered 1990, over 100 years after the story was written and Jack the ripper killed people. Since this song was written as part of the musical it would have only first been performed in 1990. Sorry to be pedantic I just really love this story and musical and as soon as I read this fact it felt off
@@chelsea-1010 There was a stage play, not a musical, made in 1887. If you visit the wikipedia page, the account about Jack the Ripper is actually recorded there.
@@klaojungwiwattanaporn6927 ah ok, I must have become confused as this song is from musical adaptation of the story, so I assumed it was in reference to the musical actors. That's a cool fact though, glad to know you are informed :)
I’m so glad you guys finally figured out how talented you are and realized you don’t need all those extra distracting dancers! I think it’s great you want to include as many students as possible though😊
I know it's in the background and maybe hard to notice, but all of Hydes victims appear on the bridge with a red scarf around their necks. I love it.
@Miia Pyykkönen
What does it symbolize?
@@revaslatts8011 that he killed them
Red means death or evil whichever it represents in films and plays
"Bad news from god, Helga." The delivery and tone are perfect!
I am so glad they kept the „Bad News from god“ line

Okay, that funeral scene was better than the original.
Olivia Cornett's voice is amazing. This is my favorite song with the ensemble cast along with Facade
YASSS, Ohh I would love to see Olivia do Glinda!
Probably my favorite scene so far with the whole company together, Brava Brava Bravissima
I see you.

The victims are all members from the Board of Governors. Doesn't it indicate Hyde is going after every classy snob who rejected Jekyll?
Reva Slatts In.the Broadway version, Simon Stride does get killed by Hyde.
*confused by all the mixed ideas*
Uh, okay? I guess that works.

They did a REALLY good job. These kids have Talent. Pitch and the like, great.
Wish you guys sold the whole play!! Would definitely buy!! Much love from Scotland!
Please applaud the person who made the costumes as well as the actors. 🏆🎬 Since TKA is closed now, when was this production made?
Jacob Roberts the performances were in january :)
@@alyssafox125 Thank you, Alyssa.
Jacob Roberts The performance took place in either January or February of this year.
@@suzannerider9460 Thank you.
this is the best i've seen this scene!
I listen this in 1.25. Soo much better. Like the original.
Loved it! 🥰
I think that the slower tempo helps . You can hear the song more better and it's used to show the passage of time.
I’m so glad you guys finally figured out how talented you are and realized you don’t need all those extra distracting dancers! I think it’s great you want to include as many students as possible though😊
very good!
This rendition has some of the strangest single-lyric changes
The MD really needs to move the music along. Quite sluggish ! The company sound fantastic though
Anyone else understand 0:12 T-T
