(LAMBERTVILLE, NJ) -- Music Mountain Theatre presents Sweeney Todd weekends from October 17 through November 2, 2025. Based on the play by Christopher Bond, this Tony-winning musical features a score by Stephen Sondheim and a book by Hugh Wheeler. It's a story of love and murder set in 19th century London, where an unjustly exiled barber returns home seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him.
Todd soon joins failing pie shop owner Mrs. Lovett in a plan to satisfy his thirst for blood and her need for fresh meat ... and the carnage has only begun!
