SWEENEY TODD adapted by John-Robert Partridge and Catherine Prout

£6.00

Adapted from the Victorian Penny Dreadful stories, Sweeney Todd tells of a barber from Fleet Street in London who teams up with the neighbouring pie-maker, Mrs Lovett In murderous deeds!

This is engrossing and atmospheric script is not for the faint-hearted with murder and mayhem at every corner. With a wide variety of great characters this script may be performed with a cast of just 9. A wonderful version of a truly gruesome tale.
