Sweeney Todd features music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by Hugh Wheeler. The embittered barber Sweeney Todd returns to London driven by a consuming desire for revenge, and as the line between justice and obsession blurs, there are chilling consequences for all who cross his path. Winner of eight Tony Awards including Best Musical, the show is a thrilling tale of vengeance, morality, and the cost of losing one's humanity.
