Groban & Ashford in SWEENEY TODD On Broadway

My apologies if if this has been mentioned (I did look back through this thread and tried to have a look around various social media accounts), but does anyone know who is on for each performance while Groban is out this week?

Nicholas Christopher is Sweeney every performance this week except for Wednesday night, when the role will be played by Paul-Jordan Jansen.

$85.20 vs. $242.

The difference for the same orchestra seat in late January 2024 versus with Groban this summer.  Thrilled to return and see the transitional casting for such a great price.

I'd fully expect discount codes to start popping up for Foster/Tveit dates soon.


A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

I hope so. Prices for the same seats this April with them are MORE than what I paid for Groban and Ashford last May. Ridiculous.

Indeed. It helped me get it on the third attempt so it was a good morning lol.

He posted on IG Stories that a dear friend passed away, he will be paying his respects at the funeral and he appreciates everyone’s understanding.

I think it was a real dignified way of reminding people that these performers have lives, too - and the show will go on fantastically regardless, as his understudies are killer (no pun intended). Bummer for the audience to not see JG but they can be refunded if it really comes down to it. 


I am big. It’s the REVIVALS that got small.

Ashford's been out the past couple days with a bug. I think she's taking it one day at a time right now, so not sure if she'll be back for the weekend. She's been posting updates on Instagram stories.

Sorry if this has been asked before but how bloody is this production? Obviously its Sweeney Todd, so there definetely will be blood. But how brutal is it? I looove the Music but Im not the best with seeing alot of blood. So Im very unsure if I should just risk it and go see it or not.

There's blood, but, honestly, not nearly enough in this production IMO. The use of blood is much tamer in this production than in past productions I've seen. I *think* you'll be okay.

Go see it! Don't worry about it and not brutal at all as it lacks blood.The new sunset revival has a lot more blood.
