Brothers Wayne and Shane Mitchell play Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Jamie Newsom joins Mark Muro to discuss Doubt with veteran director Dick Reichman and actress Bernie Blaine. Set against the backdrop of a Bronx Catholic school in 1964, Doubt is the story of a strong-minded woman faced with a difficult decision: should she voice concerns about one of her male colleagues even if she’s not entirely certain of the truth? Doubt is now playing at Cyrano’s Off-Center Playhouse on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 7:00 PM and Sundays at 3:00 PM through November 4th.

Twins Wayne and Shane Mitchell, starring as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, also stopped by to chat with Jamie and Mark. Presented by TBA Theatre, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde opens at Alaska Pacific University’s Grant Hall Theatre on October 26th. Friday and Saturday shows start at 7:00 PM, Saturday and Sunday shows at 3:00 PM, and Halloween night at 7:00 PM and 10:00 PM. This magical play promises to give audiences a “good scare,” along with candy for trick-or-treaters on Halloween night.
