Stephen Sondheim's thrilling, theatrical treat has simultaneously shocked, awed, and delighted audiences across the world and scooped up 8 Tony awards and the Laurence Olivier for Best New Musical when released.
An infamous tale, Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the corrupt and 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!
This dark yet comic piece of musical theatre history is being ably tackled by our senior students and is sure to delight and horrify in equal measure.
