Sweeney Todd
April 16 @ 7:30 pm - April 18 @ 12:00 am
Since its Broadway premiere—where it earned eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical— Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s darkly delicious masterpiece, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, has become a bloody, worldwide success. Unjustly exiled, Sweeney Todd returns to London seeking revenge against Judge Turpin, the corrupt authority who framed him and destroyed his family. Above a failing pie shop run by the cunning Mrs. Lovett, Todd reopens his barber practice—setting in motion a gruesome partnership that soon feeds both his bloodlust and the city’s appetite. With a cast of unforgettable characters and some of the most chilling music ever written for the stage, Sweeney Todd invites audiences not just to witness the story, but to step inside it—where the danger is constant, the shadows are just a little too close, and escape is never guaranteed.
