Summary:
Enter the dark, twisted streets of 19th-century London—where revenge is served piping hot. Sweeney Todd, a barber with a haunted past, returns from exile burning with vengeance against the corrupt judge who destroyed his life and stole his wife. But justice has a price—and blood will spill. Teaming up with the wickedly clever Mrs. Lovett, whose meat pie shop is circling the drain, Todd opens a barbershop upstairs with a sinister twist. As razors flash and bodies vanish, Mrs. Lovett’s business starts booming… thanks to a secret ingredient that has Londoners begging for more. But beware—this is only the beginning of the madness. The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is back… and his blades are hungry.
Sweeney Todd is presented through special arrangement with Musical Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are supplied by MTI. www.MTISHOWS.com
