Tickets now available to the general public for the San Francisco run.
The hit Broadway revival of Sondheim's musical thriller arrives at A.C.T. for the first stop on its national tour. In this visionary and re-imagined production of Sweeney Todd, the legendary demon barber of Fleet Street still serves up his justice vigilante-style, but director John Doyle has created an edgier, stripped-down staging of Sondheim's masterpiece complete with a multitalented cast of actors playing all the instruments onstage. The intimate result delivers wicked pleasure in a chilling evening of theater that "burrows into your thoughts with a poisoned seductiveness" (The New York Times). With its naughty humor and infectious melodies, Sweeney Todd knows how to show you a bloody good time!
