Every Saturday this Summer, enjoy all the great musicals that made it from Broadway to the BIG SCREEN (and sometimes back again).
This week it's SWEENEY TODD
The famously mad musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street tells the sad, but fiendish tale of a barber who returns from wrongful imprisonment to 1840s London, bent on revenge for the rape and death of his wife, and resumes his trade while forming a sinister partnership with his fellow tenant, Mrs. Lovett. Meat Pies anyone?
