This production is, by far, the worst road show I have ever seen come through this area.
It consists of approximately 10 actors (who also make up the orchestra), one rather bleak set piece, and a series of props. If you can picture people attempting to sing and play their parts while carting around musical instruments and trying to avoid bumping into each other, then you've got the gist of the whole show.
If you're in the mood for "Sweeney Todd - The Concert" then by all means go; there are at least some good singers on the stage. If, however, you're looking for a rendition of the show which at least bears some passing resemblance to the original Broadway production, then don't waste your money here: go buy the DVD from Amazon.
