What is Sweeney Todd about?
Sweeney Todd the Demon Barber of Fleet Street is about a barber who has been sent away from his wife Lucy and daughter Johanna to jail on a forced charge of foolishness. He ha…s come back to London after his sentence had ended hoping to come home to his wife, child and beloved barber shop. When he finds out that his home and barber shop had been turned into a Pie shop now owning to the very ditsy lovable Mrs.Lovett and that his wife had died and his daughter is being held captive by the very judge that put him away 15 years ago he is fuming with rage and wants revenge! He soon starts practicing slitting people's throats on his customers with his silver razors, in order to practice getting his revenge of killing the judge that put him away. The meat from Sweeney's victims is then made into delicious pies for Mrs.Lovett's pie shop. The whole thing is set in the 1800's and is a big musical on stage and in the movie theatre. If your not much of a musical person i definitely recommend you going to go see it with Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd and Helena Boham Carter as Mrs.Nellie Lovett. I know it sounds a bit gruesome but trust me you ll love it as much as me when you see it. It's about a barber who comes back to London to find his wife, but finds out shes dead. And tries to get his revenge on the judge that exiled him for a faulty crime. It's amazing. It's a musical kind of. (MORE)
