Event Description

Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Westobou Festival

Augusta Opera presents the Augusta premiere of Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. You've seen the movie, now watch the blood flow LIVE on the Imperial stage. "Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd" sings the chorus as it ebbs and wanes like an amoeba in this dark tale of revenge and death. A Tony award-winning musical with a book by Hugh Wheeler and music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, it is based on the 19th-century legend of Sweeney Todd, and specifically upon the 1973 play by Christopher Bond. Sweeney Todd, fact or fiction? See it and be your own judge and jury. For mature audiences only. A Westobou Festival event.
