The Axelrod Performing Arts Center (APAC) welcomed Broadway's original Dr. Henry Jekyll, Robert Cuccioli, and American Idol finalist and Broadway's revival Dr. J, Constantine Maroulis, at its opening of "Jekyll and Hyde." Scroll down for a photo of them with star Remember Jones!
The production, directed and choreographed by Paul Stancato and lighting by Keith Truax, enters its final weekend, with performances Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 pm, and Sunday at 3 pm.
The Tony-nominated star of "Jekyll and Hyde," now a director himself, Cuccioli is certainly familiar with the many faces and facets of the show: "Director Paul Stancato takes a fresh, original look at a show I know so very well and surprised and delighted me over and over again."
Maroulis, also a Tony-nominated star, has frequently shared the stage with Remember Jones and knows a good rock singer when he hears one: "We all know Anthony (D'Amato) and his dual personality Remember Jones... Now see him embody the best of good and evil in Jekyll and Hyde on stage ... He rocks it as usual!" (Maroulis was nominated for a Tony for "Rock of Ages.")
In addition to Remember Jones in the title role, the show features Rebecca Krainik as Lucy Harris and Adrianna Milbrath as Emma with musical direction by James Rushin.
APAC is located in Deal Park (Ocean Township), just five minutes from Asbury Park.
