"Sweeney Todd" isn’t just about a revenge-seeking serial killer—it’s also about tangled, desperate, and even sweet love stories woven through the darkness.

✨ Anthony & Johanna: The classic tale of young love! Anthony’s devotion to Johanna is pure and unwavering, risking everything to rescue her from Judge Turpin’s clutches.

✨ Mrs. Lovett & Sweeney Todd: A twisted, unrequited love. Mrs. Lovett dreams of a cozy domestic life with Sweeney, even if it means cooking up schemes to keep him close. Her loyalty and longing add a darkly comedic yet heartbreaking layer.

✨ Toby & Mrs. Lovett: Genuine affection and loyalty. Toby’s love for Mrs. Lovett is pure and protective, making his realization of betrayal all the more tragic.

At its core, "Sweeney Todd" explores how love can be beautiful, misguided, or completely corrupted. It’s what makes this show so unforgettable!

🎟️ See the madness, love, and tragedy before it’s gone—Final performance April 13!
