Times are hard in 1846 London and one must make do. So NelIie Lovett adds something extra to the meat pies she peddIes on Fleet Street. The secret ingredient: freshIy murdered victims of her partner in crime, barber Sweeney Todd.
Composer/Iyricist Stephen Sondheim refashions a macabre tale into a musical masterwork in this dazzling performance of the 1979 Broadway hit originalIy staged by HaroId Prince. In her Tony-winning roIe , AngeIa Lansbury plays NeIIie. George Hearn turns his stage roIe of twisted Sweeney into an Emmy-winning triumph. The score coiIs around itself in ever-tightening spirals. The lines rippIe with black humor and madness. Enter Sweeney's tonsorial parIor. Attend the tale. |
