Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, Book by Hugh Wheeler
“Revenge is a dish best served… in a meat pie.”
Prepare for a dark journey through the sinister streets of Victorian London with Sweeney Todd. Follow the vengeful barber as he seeks justice, aided by the cunning Mrs. Lovett and her rather… unique meat-pie business. Stephen Sondheim’s masterpiece weaves a twisted tale of love, revenge, and morality, brought to life by hauntingly beautiful music. Equal parts chilling and captivating, Sweeney Todd will leave you spellbound—and maybe a bit wary of your next shave…

“Brains, beauty, and Bruiser: Harvard has no idea what’s coming!”
Fasten your stilettos and get ready to snap and strut into Elle Woods’ world! This blonde dynamo is heading to Harvard Law with a lot of style, a little pup named Bruiser, and enough pink power suits to turn every courtroom into a Paris fashion show. With a dash of bling and a whole lot of sass, Elle’s here to prove that she’s not just hair flips and heels—she’s got the brains, heart, and high-energy dance numbers to take on the Ivy League. This feel-good musical will have you cheering as Elle conquers law school, smashes stereotypes, and shows us that self-confidence is the ultimate accessory
