In the dark heart of Victorian-era London, Sweeney Todd, a wrongly exiled barber, seeks retribution against the lecherous Judge Turpin, the architect of his ruin. With a razor-sharp thirst for vengeance, Todd’s path converges with the cunning pie shop owner Mrs. Lovett. The relentless pursuit of justice takes a turn as Todd’s razor weaves a chilling narrative. Kevin Nakatani and Dr. Carol Anderson will introduce this operatic cautionary tale with social perspective, creator biographies, musical highlights, and focused discussion on the sometimes-controversial intersection of opera and musical theatre. Attendees will have the option to visit a working rehearsal after the class, and will be offered a discount code for ticket purchases.
