The Gettysburg Community Theatre has announced that the “dark, witty and Tony Award-winning tale of love, murder and revenge set against the backdrop of 19th century London” Sweeney Todd will come to the theater in January.
An infamous tale, Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a resourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which, he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett’s luck sharply shifts when Todd’s thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up… and the carnage has only just begun!
Directed by Chad-Alan Carr and Carrie Conklin, the show will run Jan. 14 through 30, 2022 at 7:00 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 2:00 p.m. Sundays.
