This non-musical version of Sweeney Todd, the world's most heartless villain, is based on the same 'penny dreadful'; stories as the Sondheim musical (this script predates the musical). Sweeney Todd lures rich victims into his barber shop, puts them in a 'special chair,' and ... where do they go? Ask Mrs Lovett, owner of a nearby pastry shop which specializes in meat pies. This version is full of fun and suspense, designed for easy and inexpensive but oh so effective presentation by all groups for all ages of audiences. Playing time approx. 2 hours.
