A towering achievement of musical theatre, Sweeney Todd is Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s Tony Award-winning masterpiece, a chilling tale of obsession, justice, and meat pies. Featuring a live 10-piece orchestra and unforgettable songs including The Worst Pies in London, My Friends, Johanna, Epiphany, and A Little Priest.

Following a sold-out run of CABARET , the inaugural production from Horrorshow Productions, the Toronto-based non-profit community theatre group returns with another daring musical revival.

Critics called CABARET and Horrorshow Productions “a bold, exciting – and most welcome – new voice in the Toronto theatre community” (Sesaya Arts Magazine), “as close to professional as community theatre gets” (Our Theatre Voice), “an ambitious production… immersive and unforgettable” (A View from the Box), and “a stunning first-time entry into the Toronto theatre scene” (Front Mezz Junkies).


Sweeney Todd contains adult language, violence, sexual violence, and elements of gore. Recommended for ages 12+. No infants or children under 5 are permitted in the theatre. All guests must have a ticket, regardless of age.

All sales are final. As a small non-profit community organization, we’re unable to offer refunds or exchanges for any reason, including illness, scheduling conflicts, or weather.

Shows run rain or shine, including during winter conditions. Please check traffic or transit alerts and allow extra time to get to the theatre.

Parking near Alumnae Theatre is limited. We recommend arriving early to allow time for travel and to enjoy our themed pre-show experience.

There is no late entry. The performance will begin promptly at 8:00 PM (or 2:00 PM for matinees).
