The award-winning musical thriller, “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street,” opens July 11 in Wimberley.
The Stephen Sondheim musical follows the tale of an unjustly exiled barber who, upon return to London, discovers that a lustful local judge has framed him and abused his young wife. On a quest for revenge, Sweeney crosses paths with a certain Mrs. Lovett, the owner of a lackluster meat shop, who encourages him to open a barber shop where she is inspired to make pies — with one mysterious and troubling new ingredient.
The Wimberley Players take on this Tony Award- and Olivier Award-winning musical with music and lyrics by Sondheim and book by Hugh Wheeler, which has captured audiences since its 1979 Broadway debut.
