Stephen Sondheim, Hugh Wheeler

Premiere Feb 2, 2023, 6.30 PM - Jiří Myron Theatre

A musical thriller

logoInformace

Based on the original by Christopher Bond
Original stage direction on Broadway Harold Prince
Instrumentation Jonathan Tunick
Czech translation Hana Nováková
Stage director Juraj Čiernik
Musical preparation Marek Prášil

Sweeney Todd is out for revenge. And rightly so—a vicious judge took his wife, child, and freedom years ago. Now, Sweeney is back, resuming his business as a barber and hairdresser. But where have some of his customers gone? And why has the meat pie shop run by Sweeney’s neighbour Mrs. Lovett suddenly begun to thrive?
A black comedy or thriller is set in the poorest part of London, where nothing is free and everyone takes justice into their own hands. Since its premiere in 1979, legendary Broadway composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim has literally taken the world by storm with his musical, having it performed in most chamber theatres as well as famous opera houses. In the Czech Republic, our staging makes the production be staged on a major stage for the first time.

Performed in agreement with the Music Theatre International (Europe) Ltd.
