"Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd!" - The 25th Anniversary Production!

One of the greatest and most dramatic of twentieth century musicals in a spectacular new production from Watermill Theatre’s multi award-winning company of actor-musicians.

Celebrating its 25th anniversary, Sondheim's musical masterpiece is set in darkest Victorian England and tells the infamous take of Sweeney Todd, the demon barber who forms an enterprising business relationship with Mrs Lovett, the proprietess of the downstairs pie shop.

Sweeney Todd is directed and designed by John Doyle and features a cast of 9 actor/musicians.

Following a successful season at London's West End Trafalgar Studios, this production transferred to the New Ambasadors Theatre from 13 October 2004.
