From an adaptation by CHRISTOPHER BONDSWEENEY TODD has become a worldwide success since being awarded 8 TONY's, one of them for Best Musical. A tasty, thrilling, theatrical treat, the show has simultaneously shocked, awed, and delighted audiences across the world. Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to 19th century London seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him. The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a resourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett's luck sharply shifts when Todd's thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up, and the carnage has only just begun!
