The Demon Barber is back! With the seal approval of the highest authority in musical theatre, Tooting Arts Club have transported their pie shop from SW17 to W1 to recreate one of 2014's smash hits.
Tooting Arts Club's acclaimed production of Sweeney Todd is to move to a new home on Shaftesbury Avenue this spring whilst Harrington's Pie and Mash Shop undergoes refurbishment. The pop-up pie shop success story started last October when Tooting Arts offered up lovelorn Mrs Lovett's infamous pies in a grisly, site-specific production of Stephen Sondheim's most famous musical in SW17. Audiences met in the local barbers before being led into London's oldest, functioning pie-shop, established in 1908 and complete with original Victorian decor.

Gary Naylor sees a bold, and ultimately fulfilling, revival of Jerry Herman's 1979 musical, one that makes up in drama and pathos what it lacks in characterisation.
The European premiere of Jerry Herman's 1979 Broadway musical, The Grand Tour, directed by Thom Southerland, will take place at the Finborough Theatre as part of the 20 Premieres Season. Produced by Danielle Tarento, The Grand Tour will run for an eight-week strictly limited season from Thursday, 1 January to Saturday 21 February. BroadwayWorld brings you photos of the show below!
