The 11th annual Heartwood/Lincoln Academy collaboration is well underway, as 30 Midcoast students rehearse the Broadway musical, "Jekyll & Hyde."
Performances open Thursday, Oct. 30, under the seasoned coaching of director Griff Braley, vocal director Beth Preston and music director/accompanist Sean Fleming.
The epic struggle between good and evil comes to life on stage in this musical phenomenon. Based on the classic story by Robert Louis Stevenson, featuring a thrilling score of pop rock hits from multi-Grammy and Tony-nominated Frank Wildhorn and double Oscar and Grammy-winning Leslie Bricusse, this show has mesmerized audiences the world over.
Lincoln and Heartwood have a long history of maximizing combined resources to create exceptional performance opportunities for students dating back to 2004, when 70 students from 12 Midcoast schools participated in an epic production of "Les Miserables" in Wiscasset.
As this relationship has strengthened over the years, numerous Midcoast businesses have come alongside to support with financial resources.
Three Midcoast enterprises, often recognized as enthusiastic youth supporters, are once again sponsoring the fall youth production: Chesterfield Associates, Colby and Gale and Supplies Unlimited. Damariscotta Hardware continues on a long track record as Heartwood's Season Youth Sponsor, First Advisors is on board as Season Intermission Sponsor, and Bath Savings Institution generously anchors Heartwood, as Season Sponsor.
Six evening performances and one matinee will be presented in the Poe Theater at Lincoln Academy. Evening performances begin at 7:30 on Oct. 30, 31, Nov. 1, 6, 7 and 8, and Sunday, Nov. 2 at 3 p.m. will be the only matinee. Tickets are $8 for students, $16 for adults. Seating is unreserved, unless specially requested in advance.
The Poe Theater is located at 81 Academy Hill Road in Newcastle.
