Venue: Marroney Theatre
Start Time: 1:30pm

The School of Theatre, Film & Television re-opens the Marroney Theatre with this dark, witty and Tony Award-winning tale of love, murder and revenge set against the backdrop of 19th century London.

“Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” stars TFTV seniors James Kelley Carroll in the famed eponymous role and Broadway World Regional Award winner Grace Gebara as his accomplice Mrs. Lovett. The show will run through March 17.

Set in Victorian-era London, Sweeney Todd is about a barber who embarks on a murderous rampage, extracting revenge for the cruel abuse of his wife. The winner of numerous Tony and Drama Desk Awards over the years, the musical thriller was written by Hugh Wheeler with an original score by Stephen Sondheim.

“Taking on the role of Sweeney Todd has been an immense challenge,” says James Kelley Carroll. “It’s my responsibility to ensure that audiences experiencing Mr. Todd’s dark, violent, and unforgiving world understand the intricate shades of the grey in which he resides. 

Subscriptions and single tickets are on sale now through the Arizona Arts Box Office.
