COPY:The Shane Center's Season Opens with Sweeney Todd

The Shane Lalani Center for the Arts in Livingston is delighted to kick of its 2012-2013 season with Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Set in 19th century England Sweeney returns to London after 15 years' of hard labor in an Australian penal colony on falsified charges. When he finds out that his wife poisoned herself after being violated by the judge who convicted him, he vows revenge on the judge and, later, the whole world. He teams up with a piemaker, Mrs. Lovett, and opens a barbershop in which he murders his customers and has them baked into pies. A true tour de force, Sweeney Todd opened on Broadway in 1979, winning both the Tony Award for Best Musical.

Sweeney Todd runs at the Dulcie Theatre October 12th through November 4th, playing Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 3 pm. Tickets are $16 for adults, $13 for college students and seniors, and $10 for youth, and are available at theshanecenter.org or by calling (406) 222-1420. This production may not be suitable for young children.

Sweeney Todd is sponsored by Romans Plumbing & Heating and Kirk & Connie Michels
