"Sweeney Todd is strong stuff, but you’ll probably not find it better served in better form than at Goodspeed."
-Chelsey Piemmons, News Times
"Ingenious direction"
"Ingenious direction by Gabriel Barre and clever lighting by Phil Monat make the tiny stage become one of seemingly endless depth and dimension."
-Bob Cumming, Weekly Reader Corp
"A landmark production"
"When it comes to musical theatre, it just doesn’t get much better than this. Goodspeed Opera House opens its new season with its first Stephen Sondheim musical, Sweeney Todd. A feast for the eyes and the ears, Goodspeed’s Sweeney Todd is ingeniously staged, beautifully designed, and exquisitely performed. It’s top of the line. It’s the crème de la crème. It’s a landmark production of a landmark musical."
