Some of the most unforgettable songs from the musical include “Johanna,” “Not While I’m Around,” and “The Ballad of Sweeney Todd.”
Sondheim came up with the idea for the musical. The thought of it came after seeing British actor Christopher Bond's play about the old-time murderer Sweeney Todd. He described it as "a dark operetta," but also named it "a movie for the stage." It is almost completely underscored: 80% of the show is sung, and Sondheim's music play constantly behind the action.
The story is about a hellbent barber who seeks out revenge in 19th-century London. In this Broadway revival, Josh Groban and Annaleigh Ashford star as the murderous haircutter and his infatuated sidekick, Mrs. Lovett. Dedicated to helping Sweeney Todd, Mrs. Lovett turns Sweeney Todd’s victims into meat pies for clueless customers. The distinctive musical thriller is mostly sung-through and includes both dark tunes and upbeat melodies.
