TheatreWorks,
the nationally acclaimed
theatre of Silicon Valley, presents SWEENEY
TODD, the gripping Broadway musical masterpiece with music and lyrics by Stephen
Sondheim and book by Hugh Wheeler. Based on Christopher Bond’s retelling of the
original Victorian penny dreadful, SWEENEY
TODD tells the tale of a 19th century barber seeking justice for the
corrupt London
judge who exiled him. With help from his partner in crime, the widow pie maker Mrs.
Lovett, Sweeney exacts a fearsome revenge as Mrs. Lovett concocts an alarmingly
delicious new recipe for her pie shop. SWEENEY
TODD received eight Tony Awards
for its Original Broadway Production, and won another six during its 2005
revival.
