JULY 17-AUGUST 9, 2026
ATTEND THE TALE! FNT brings Stephen Sondheim’s eight-time Tony winning epic revenge musical home to the St. Louis theater that is named for it! (Or for one of the songs, at least.) Sweeney Todd has become a bloody, worldwide success and has proved a tasty, thrilling, theatrical treat for shocked, awed and delighted audiences across the world.
An infamous tale, Sweeney Todd, an unjustly exiled barber, returns to nineteenth century London, seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife. The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a resourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which, he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett's luck sharply shifts when Todd's thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up... and the carnage has only just begun!
