Al estreno, el pasado 20 de marzo, del nuevo montaje londinense de la pieza se suma el lanzamiento realizado por First Nights Records de la grabación del elenco original, que cada noche da vida (y muerte) a estos personajes que se mueven por las oscuras callejuelas de la ciudad del Támesis.

Sondheim Grants Approval for Michael Ball & Imelda Staunton Led SWEENEY TODD for Broadway
by Robert Diamond
- Mar 22, 2012
Now, Baz Bamigboye of the UK Daily Mail has revealed that 'Stephen Sondheim has given director Jonathan Kent's Chichester Festival Theatre production of Sweeney Todd (with Michael Ball and Imelda Staunton delivering the stage performances of their lives) his seal of approval. He'd love the two stars to take the deliciously grisly musical to Broadway when they complete their run at the Adelphi Theatre.
There's no official word this will happen yet, because both actors have crazy schedules, but it would be fantastic if they did manage to cross the Atlantic with this Sweeney.'
