KW Productions is proud to present one of the darkest musicals ever written, SWEENEY TODD.

Sweeney Todd tells the infamous tale of an unjustly exiled barber who returns home to Victorian London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who ruined his life. 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 an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up... and the carnage has only just begun!

Sweeney Todd has become a bloody, worldwide success  and  is widely regarded as Sondheim’s masterpiece. This multi Tony award winning musical is lush, operatic, and full of soaring beauty, pitch-black comedy and stunning terror.

​Age recommendation: 12+

Please note: This production contains some adult topics, mature themes and disturbing imagery.
