Get yourselves ready because Sweeney Todd is returning to the stage in an upcoming Broadway revival. The iconic musical thriller is known as Stephen Sondheim’s most remarkable work. The devilish plot paired with the hauntingly beautiful tunes makes it the perfect Broadway show. It premiered on Broadway in 1979, and the story and music remains one of the most powerful scores today. Some of the best hits from the musical include “Johanna,” “Not While I’m Around,” and “The Ballad of Sweeney Todd.”
Sondheim is the mastermind behind the musical. The idea came after seeing British actor Christopher Bond's play about the 19th-century serial killer Sweeney Todd. He calls it "a dark operetta," but also named it "a movie for the stage." It is almost completely underscored: most of the show is sung, and Sondheim's melodies play consistently behind the action.
The story follows a hellbent barber who seeks out revenge in London’s 19th century. Josh Groban and Annaleigh Ashford will star alongside each other as the barbaric barber and his adoring sidekick. As crazy as she is, Mrs. Lovett bakes Sweeney Todd’s victims into meat pies for innocent customers. The distinctive musical thriller is mostly sung-through and includes both dark tunes and upbeat melodies.
Alas! Broadway audiences will finally be able to enjoy Stephen Sondheim's best score in its entirety - complete with Jonathan Tunick's iconic 26-player orchestration - happening for the first time since its premiere.
