During a prior interview with leading star Josh Groban, he reflects on his journey playing the character of the central barber.
“… for me what intrigued me the most about Sweeney Todd was the contradictions: the beautiful score combined with the darkly humorous content, the gloomy storyline. There’s such a juxtaposition of elegance and grimness in the character, combined with several of the most remarkable music and lyrics ever composed. It genuinely is nothing less than a masterpiece to perform, regardless of the type.”
Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street stands as one of Broadway’s most notable feats in the history of musicals, continually praised across its different incarnations by the Tony, Drama Desk, Olivier, Drama League, and Outer Critics Circle award-giving organizations.
