‘Jekyll & Hyde,’ ‘Anything Goes’ set for spring
Two high-profile revivals have been added to Broadway in Chicagos finalized 2013 spring season.
“American Idol” contestant Constantine Maroulis (“Rock of Ages”) and R&B star Deborah Cox (Elton John’s “Aida”) headline a Broadway-bound revival of “Jekyll & Hyde” that plays the Cadillac Palace Theatre from March 12-24. Also playing the same venue is the Roundabout Theatre Company’s 2011 Tony Award-winning revival of Cole Porter’s “Anything Goes” starring Rachael York (“101 Dalmatians”), which runs from April 23 through May 5.
“Jekyll & Hyde” and “Anything Goes” join previously announced tours of “Priscilla Queen of the Desert” (March 19-31 at the Auditorium Theatre of Roosevelt University), “Catch Me if You Can” (April 2-14 at the Cadillac Palace Theatre) and the pre-Broadway world premiere of the musical “Big Fish” at the Oriental Theatre from April 2 to May 5.
Also on the slate are returning off-season tours of “American Idiot” (April 16-21 at the Cadillac Palace Theatre) and “West Side Story” (June 11-16 at the Oriental Theatre). Another off-season show, a spoof of the Harry Potter franchise called “Potted Potter: The Unauthorized Harry Experience — A Parody by Dan and Jeff,” plays the Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place starting Tuesday, Nov. 13 for a tentative open run.
