Sweeney Todd


Yesterday we took Chris to see the musical 'Sweeney Todd' at the Citadel theatre.  It was excellent!!  It wasn't as gruesome as I was expecting it to be, but the language surprised me.  I know the story of Sweeney Todd, because we studied it at school, but I have not seen the movie.  I now want to though, because this production was so good!  

I know this story isn't based on fact - but more of an urban legend, but wow - what a sad tale.  I felt sooooo sorry for Sweeney Todd!  What an unfortunate series of events :(  



The play did remind me of the movie 'Jersey Girl'...it was the same set and had the same song that appears in the movie.....
