Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street by Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler. When this show opened on Broadway in 1979, it won nine Tony Awards, including Best Book, Best Score, and Best Musical. Sondheim is regarded as a premiere American composer, and the quality of his work as a musician is so superb it is often presented by opera companies or in concert presentation as well.

A rare instance of a musical thriller, this chilling, suspenseful, heart-pounding masterpiece of murderous barber-ism and culinary crime tells the infamous tale of the unjustly exiled barber who returns to 19th century London seeking revenge against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. Sophisticated, macabre, visceral and uncompromising, Sweeney Todd nevertheless has a great sense of fun, mixing intense drama with howlingly funny moments of dark humor: audiences have found themselves laughing hysterically one moment and gasping in surprise the next.
