Sweeney Todd @ Anacortes Community Theatre (Anacortes) 🎃
The witty and infamous tale of love, murder, and revenge, set against the backdrop of 19th century London.
Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. 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 a new ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up … and the carnage has only just begun.
