Attend the tale of …
Sondheim’s Tony Award-winning
SWEENEY TODD: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Love, murder and revenge pulse through this dark, but hugely witty Masterpiece!
Ages 14-21
Auditions: 13th & 15th September
Production: March 2025

An exceptional piece of theatre and chosen because it will definitely stretch and challenge our age 14+ cast!

An infamous and unsettling tale, Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ruined his life. The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a resourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which, he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett’s luck sharply shifts when Todd’s thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up… and the carnage has only just begun!

Awarded eight Tony’s (including Best Musical) this tasty, thrilling, theatrical treat has simultaneously shocked, awed and delighted audiences across the world.

9 PRINCIPALS, 9+ ENSEMBLE

Stephen Sondheim’s most perfect score is lush, operatic, and full of soaring beauty, pitch-black comedy and stunning terror.
