THIS PRODUCTION CONTAINS MATURE SUBJECT MATTER AND THEMES
A tasty, thrilling, theatrical treat, this Stephen Sondheim ground breaking musical has simultaneously shocked, awed, and delighted audiences across the world. Winner of 8 Tony® Awards, this is an infamous tale of an unjustly exiled barber, returning to London to seek revenge on the judge who framed him. A lush, operatic, and full of soaring beauty, pitch-black comedy and stunning terror, it’s one of the signal achievements of the American musical theater of the last fifty years!
Based on the Victorian penny-dreadful The String of Pearls, this thrilling tale was transformed with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Sweeney Todd, after being wrongly imprisoned, returns to London to resume his barber business above a struggling pie shop owned by Mrs. Lovett. The two team up to right the wrongs they have experienced, and offer audiences a exciting tale of revenge.
Reimagined for the silver screen in 2007, the film adaptation of the musical starred Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd, alongside Helena Bonham Carter as Mrs. Lovett.
