Hey All -
I was wondering if I could pose the question: 'Where would I be able to come across prop straight-edge razors for SWEENEY?' I can only find MOVIE REPLICAS (that don't squirt the blood), of course, I need THOSE. I'm looking for one that can be opened/closed ("My Friends") and another - that if it opens/closes, awesome - for the slayings. If anyone could point me in the right direction and how and where to look, I'd be ever-grateful.
Many thanks for your help!
Best,
- Mike

Posted: 1/26/09 at 2:49amYou can usually rent them from regional theatres that have done the show and built them (rigged for the blood squirting, etc.) If I'm not mistaken, the last time I did this show, we rented them from American Musical Theatre of San Jose.

Bob -
What's the price range for the blood razors (and) the 'other' ones? I only ask 'cause I'm shopping around for a good deal.
