DOUBLE THE FUN

A Bay Ridge theater group is celebrating Halloween with a run of two-faced fun.

The Narrows Community Theater’s production of "Jekyll & Hyde" will open on Oct. 28 with a collection of homegrown actors. Bay Ridge’s Dawn Barry Hansen will direct Dyker Heights’s George Tsalikis in the role of Dr. Jekyll, who really gets a taste of the good and evil sides that exist in each person. The musical, with book and lyrics by Leslie Bricusse, ran on Broadway for almost four years.

In the Halloween tradition of transforming oneself, the character of Dr. Jekyll absorbs a mind-altering chemical and sports a spooky costume for a murderous double personality.

With this latest production, Narrows Community Theater Vice President Ann Gubiotti told GO Brooklyn, "We have a lot of new faces as well as our seasoned members. [Theater] really brings people together. The people in the community who are not performers bring their other talents and work with publicity, the Web site, tickets and costumes. With each show, we attract new people who become involved and committed."

Gubiotti said the Narrows Community Theater production of "Jekyll & Hyde," based on Robert Louis Stevenson’s 1886 novel, will also include a live orchestra.

Narrows Community Theater presents "Jekyll & Hyde" on Oct. 28 at 2 pm and 8 pm, Oct. 29 at 8 pm, Nov. 3 at 8 pm, Nov. 4 at 8 pm and Nov. 5 at 3 pm at St. Patrick’s Auditorium (97th Street and Fourth Avenue in Bay Ridge). Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for seniors, students and children younger than 12. For more information, visit www.nctheaterny.com or call (718) 482-3173.
