The rare instance of a musical thriller, Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler's
chilling, suspenseful, heart-pounding masterpiece of murderous barber-ism and
culinary crime tells the infamous tale of the unjustly exiled barber who returns
to 19th century London seeking revenge against the lecherous judge who framed
him and ravaged his young wife. His thirst for blood soon expands to include
his unfortunate customers, and the resourceful proprietress of the pie shop
downstairs soon has the people of London lining up in droves with her
mysterious new meat pie recipe! Sophisticated, macabre, visceral and
uncompromising, Sweeney Todd nevertheless has a great sense of
fun, mixing intense drama with howlingly funny moments of dark humor:
audiences find themselves laughing hysterically one moment and gasping
in surprise the next.
Recommended for theatergoers age 14 and over.
