Barber Sweeney Todd returns to London to uncover the past, along the way meeting pie shop owner Mrs. Nellie Lovett, and begins to start his life of crime.

One of many Sondheim masterpieces, 'Sweeney Todd' is an immortal musical in every sense of the word. The performances are iconic (mainly Angela Lansbury as Ms Lovett) and the songs leave me speechless with their fluidity and chokehold over the inspired plot.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
