Sweeney Todd Revival Picture

Posted: 6/23/06 at 2:11pm

I swear that at one point I remember seeing a picture of the Sweeney Todd revival, and it looked like Patti and Michael were either holding hands, or had their arms linked, or they were just presed very close together and hunched over almost. I can't find this picture! Does anybody know what I am talking about, and can help me find it?

Thank You

Wow, Doyle's London version looks a lot creepier than ours.

The Ldn show does look scary as the stage is much smaller in New Ambassadors & Trafalgar Studios & Watermill Theatre than the Broadway one.

Elisa Winter, Lauren Molina's understudy, has brown hair as well.

Those pictures are awsome. I agree that the London production looks even creepier than the one here.

Sondheim's Johanna should have been a redhead.

Thats exactly what I was thinking.

I thought mabye they would use "Auburn", sounds kind of pretty.

if the actress had black hair they could use "raven".

No the words were not changed.

A few further pix one at the Watermill, which shows how small the theatre/stage is. Thrust out - rather as it was at the Trafalgar.I think that's John Doyle in the front row

The second is rarer in that it shows the cast when it moved to the Ambassadors and gained a small chorus of people in white coats.

The third is the Ambassadors cast on stage having received an award.

I love the fact that it's audience level and it's surrounded by audience in 3 sides!!! And the stage is smaller... seemse more intense!
When I saw it in Richmond, it's a nice cosy theatre and I sat 3rd row, so it's pretty gd... I can't imagine the atmosphere u get sitting first row in Watermill!!!!
I love John Doyle/Watermill combinations!!!!

Doyle's work and thrust stages go nicely.
