Mrs Lovett, at your service…

Joy is ecstatic to be playing Mrs. Lovett in Moonbox Productions’ Sweeney Todd, The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Performing in the up-and-coming Arrow Street Arts, halfway through its completion, this will be a Brechtian take on the classic tale directed by Ryan Mardesich, and Music Directed by Dan Ryan.

The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by Hugh Wheeler
From an Adaptation by Christopher Bond

A Brechtian take on a Sondheim classic. After being wrongfully imprisoned by the corrupt justice system, Sweeney Todd returns home to London to seek his revenge and save his daughter, Johanna. Aided by his meat-pie baking neighbor Mrs. Lovett, Sweeney comes to a much darker conclusion – we all deserve to die. Witness Moonbox’s new take on the modern myth, the parable of power, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
