Male parts besides Jekyll & HydeIm thinking about auditioning for this next season, are there any male parts in the show besides Jekyll & Hyde? Thank you.

There is:
Mr. Poole, Jekyll's bulter
John Utterson, Jekyll's long time friend, lawyer
General Glossip, a member of the board of directors at the hospital, is killed
The Bishop of Baskingstroke, same as Glossip
Spider, a pimp
Carew, is the soon to be father-in-law of Jekyll
Sir Archibald Proops, same as the Bishop and Glossip
I think there are a few other small male parts but I can't recall their names. There is a pretty accurate script on libretto.music.ru

Pretty good. The only ones missing are Simon Stride and Lord Savage. All of the other male parts are pretty much cameos except Sir Danvers Carew and Stride, which may be considered supporting and Utterson, who is definitely supporting.
Do the board of governer men have set personalities in the script, or is it up to the actor? I'm trying to figure out if our Proops is playing the character in a very feminine manner because it's in the script or he's too lazy to actually make a strech from his personality...

If you mean in a foppish manner like our dear Scarlet Pimpernel, though people usually are shallow to just discribe it as gay or feminine, then the DVD with David Hasselhoff potrays Archibald Proops in that light.

Yeah... I was looking for the right word... I haven't seen the Hasselhoff DVD yet. I'm sort of afraid to watch it, I've heard awful things about Hasselhoff's performance.

Mary Weathersworth, the kindly old lady who offers pop-overs to Hyde before she is bludgend to death with an iron. Favorite character, in my humble opinion.

It's not that bad. It's good to watch unless you stumble upon the Robert Evan version. Personally I, (for reasons I've already stated), hate the broadway production.

Yeah... I don't need to watch it, because I'm on the crew of a production of the original (non-Broadway) one. I like the show enough to find people to cover my position fixing the masks so I can sneak up and watch scenes from the lighting booth, but not enough that I'd ever see it professionally...

Oh you mean the tour script that's liscenced from MTI? That's more like a step sideways. Bring on the men and I need to know are in it, but Lost in the Darkness is still in it (and the two having the same ending just doesn't fit one after another) and the script still sucks.
