well, im doing the same thing, so il tell you where im starting, but any other answers will help me aswell.
1. Find a photo of Helena bonham carter in this role.
2. She wears an old brown Victorian style dress, its like a corset, but then has a big poofed out skirt. Try and get hold of one, however they may be expensive, so try looking for alternatives (what im doing)
3. Ul need an apron, put two blood satin handprints on the apron, and splatter some down, and cover with talc
4. Cover yourself in talc, it will look like flour, and also she has quite alot in her hair.
5. For very good, and rather cheap props, if your in Newcastle and near MAGICBOX in the METROCENTRE or NORTHUMBERLAND STREET try and find them, because they stock this, containing a rolling pin, meat pies, and a 'mrs lovett cookery book': Sweeney Todd ~ MRS LOVETT Meat Pie costume prop replicasearch on eBay, there are plenty in stock, especially eBay.com.
i hope this helps you :)
Mrs. Lovett
he kills people by slitting their throats and Mrs. Lovett made them into pies
she doesnt eat in the times we see her really
Mrs. Mooney is the woman that Mrs. Lovett refers to in the songs "The Worst Pies in London" and "A Little Priest". It says in the songs that she used cats as her source of meat. However, Mrs. Lovett at the time used lard of some sort which is what made her pies especially gross. However after she meets Sweeney, she uses human flesh.
She is cryin' because she has a lot of pressure on her. Mrs. Lovett just left the room so she could cry. It wasn't because Tobias asked her for a pie. It was because of all the possibilities coming up and of everything on her hands of what has happened, is happening and is yet to happen. I hope I helped you in any ways.
Mrs. Lovett was created in 1846.
Mrs. Lovett
The little boy, Toby, killed Sweeney, because Sweeney had just murdered Mrs. Lovett by burning her alive in the oven. Toby had come to regard Mrs. Lovett as a surrogate mother.
Mrs. Lovett being sick was never mentioned from all the versions that I've read and heard. In the Sweeney Todd movie, where Johnny Depp is the lead actor, the only sickness Mrs. Lovett probably have is mental illness. She seems madly in love that she was willing to do anything to keep Sweeney Todd to herself.
Helena Bonham Carter.
Mrs. Mooney is essentially Mrs. Lovett's rival who also owns her own meat pie shop. Her pies, according to Mrs. Lovett, are made of cat meat. She does not appear as a character in most productions. I've heard of one where she is a character, but have never seen or, nor do I know what exactly she does.
she intends to marry him....honeymoon with him. have children, live out the rest of their days. Mrs Lovett wants to get Sweeney away from London for three reasons: * so that they don't get caught murdering people and putting them into pies * Mrs Lovett MUST get sweeney away from Lucy because it's only a matter of time before the two find each other. * She just flat out has a crush on him. A BIG one.

Generally, Mrs Lovett's first name is Nellie; this is what is used in both the original stage version, and the Tim Burton motion picture.
