Sweeney Todd
by The Theatre Company (TTC)
Oct. 17 - Oct. 18 (2016)
Stephen Sondheim’s multiple Tony Award-winning masterpiece of murder and mayhem was a favorite on TTC’s survey this year. Sweeney Todd was revived on Broadway in 2005 and received 2 more Tonys for Best Revival of a Musical and Best Direction of a Musical. Then in 2007 Tim Burton brought the musical to the movie screen garnering 3 Oscar nominations and winning 2 Golden Globes for Best Actor and Best Film!

As we settle into our highly successful run of "The Little Mermaid" people are starting to ask about our next production, Stephen Sondheim's masterwork "Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street." So below you will find the cast of characters and tentative rehearsal schedule for our production. You will notice that there is a lot of music rehearsal for this show and that is because of the musical challenges of the piece. Do not think you can skip the musical rehearsals. In fact, try and clear your schedule for the rehearsal period. Also, there are parts for children and/or teenagers, but, because of the subject matter, anyone underages interested in auditioning must have written permission from their parrents or guardians. The last time we presented "Sweeney Todd" there were 3 teenagers and 1 child in the cast.
