Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

"Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd … he shaved the faces of gentlemen who never thereafter where heard of again…"

The Tony Award-winning best musical of 1979 makes its South Bay premiere! The chilling, heart-pounding musical thriller of barber-ism and culinary crime tells the infamous tale of the unjustly imprisoned barber who returns to 19th century London seeking revenge on the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his wife. Sweeney Todd boasts Stephen Sondheim’s grandest, most beautiful and ingeniously crafted score. Produced with an 18-piece orchestra, costumes and new set, this is sure to be one of the South Bay’s most anticipated shows of 2009! The only thing missing from our meat pies is …… YOU! — You’ll Lovett!Music and Lyrics by STEPHEN SONDHEIMBook by HUGH WHEELERFrom an Adaptation by CHRISTOPHER BOND
