Stephen Sondheim's wickedly funny musical masterpiece, SWEENEY TODD, THE DEMON BARBER OF FLEET STREET, opens June 10th at the Warwick Theatre in Kansas City. The theatre is located on the eastern side of the Westport Entertainment District at 3927 Main Street.
SWEENEY TODD has been thrilling and terrifying audiences around the globe for over 40 years. A wrongly-accused barber, returns to London after years of exile. When he seeks revenge against the cunning judge and his family, Todd's thirst for blood soon causes bodies to start piling up. Let you in on a little secret, don't eat Todd's neighbor Mrs. Lovett's meat pie (she's found a new ingredient). Audience beware, there will be blood!
Phil Kinen and Nick Padgett, Producing Artistic Director for Padgett Productions, direct a large cast starring Patrick Lewallen as Sweeney Todd and Cori Weber as Mrs. Lovett. Musical Direction is provided by Tim Braselton with costumes by Francis Kapono-Kuzila. Set design is by Kelli Harrod and lighting design by Zan de Spelder.

Review: TINA at Kansas City Music Hall
The sheer spectacle of “Tina” is amazing. Emphasizing the fact that Tina Turner was one of a kind, the gravely-voiced, sexy, full out singing style of Tina is so stressful on the performer’s voices, this show uses two actresses to play her on alternate evenings.

BWW Q&A: Jennifer Hemphill of A CHRISTMAS CAROL THE MUSICAL at The Conservatory for the Performing Arts at Stephens College
Ebenezer Scrooge is a prosperous curmudgeon who believes that personal wealth is far more valuable than the happiness and comfort of others. Scrooge summates his feelings of Christmas tidings and charitable giving, but is forced to face his selfish ways when three ghosts appear to him on Christmas Eve and lead him through his Past, Present, and Future. Music by Broadway heavy hitters Alan Mencken and Lynn Ahrens breathes new life into this classic tale.
