I got my ticket for my late April trip to New York the moment the new block went on sale.   I'm the sure the London cast will be terrific, but I'm very pleased with this announcement.

Considering the first block sold out without discounts of any kind, I highly doubt it.

This is thrilling news! Carmello is inspired casting.  She was set to do the Seattle production of Sweeney several years back, but I think she took Lestat instead.  So excited.  She will slay in this role,

YES!!!!!

 


"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022) "Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009) "Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Yes, the horror of getting to see Sweeney Todd twice. Tragic.
