I'm really bummed about this. I'm an ardent fan of BSM, and was very much looking forward to this.

Ok, looking for a bright side.....now I won't feel so guilty spending money on good tickets for the Jason Robert Brown concert at Strathmore.

Brian Stokes Mitchell is going to be at Strathmore next April if you can hold out that long.

Well, considering I'd been looking forward to the Sweeney concert for a year...

I loved Michael's comment. Not that HE said it so much as he said what everyone is thinking about themselves.

Christine Baranski's understudy for Sweeney was Jane Pesci Townsend, who is fabulous in everything she does.

Regardless of how pathetic the season is at Kennedy and Warner (and National, for that matter), DC still has a strong regional scene. I wish people would not judge the offerings simply on venues that mainly have tours or big productions- expand your horizons. And no, I don't work for any of the regional theatres.

That said, I did not plan to attend the Sweeney concert simply because it is too soon to have something like this after the high profile Sweeney productions in the last few years, but am sad for those who did want to attend.

Although the season at the Kennedy and Warner are pathetic, it is more frustrating because of the fact that they keep cancelling things. And, I would have to disagree about DC's stong reagonal scene. For DC's size, I find cities like Chicago are much better and have more to offer on a consistent basis. But maybe it is just my taste?

Aw, damn. I had been thinking about going to this. Yeah, Jane Pesci Townsend was great in the role, thought I guess they'd need to have the two name stars to get more people interested.

I was really looking forward to this, since i missed Christine last time. Sweeney Todd seems to get cancelled a lot nowadays. What's the deal?

I was just curious, has anyone who purchased tickets online for these concerts has received a refund yet?
