Take a trip to Fleet Street with us if you dare! Sweeney Todd became a bloody, worldwide success since being awarded eight Tony’s, (including Best Musical), for its Broadway premiere in 1979. Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s (A Little Night Music, Pacific Overtures) tasty, thrilling, theatrical treat has simultaneously shocked, awed and delighted audiences across the world. The revival in 2023 starring Josh Groban and Annaleigh Ashford introduced a new generation to the musical thriller.
An infamous tale, Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a resourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which, he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett’s luck sharply shifts when Todd’s thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up… and the carnage has only just begun!
