This March 8-10th, we invite you to attend the tale of Sweeney Todd at NIU Stevens Building's O'Connell Theatre! With the Marquee Conservatory program Director, Colin Bokowy at the helm, you're in for a treat: 28 talented local actors from the Fox Valley, a live orchestra pit of professional and pre-professional musicians led by Andrew Luzwick, and of course, a masterfully delectable score by Stephen Sondheim. For tickets, go to Marqueeyouth.org or https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?show=228452An 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!
