Execution is interesting, but ... where they sing here? Sweeney Todd is a musical after all! (And this is the best ;) ) I think a little more testing and it would be better. But still nice to be watched. Always some other variety ;D
Sweeney Todd is a musical, I'm in it right now, so where's the singing? I'm sorry but you guys bombed this. The casting was bad the costumes were bad and it just sucks..
stop bitching people, everybody knows that Sweeney Todd s a musical but the budget couldnt afford a musical play or the actors (very good acting btw ) could not sing properly, it happens. but it was really good ! bloody good. even if it was without any music.
@w123223445 Well, not every version. Certainly not the original Dibdin-Pitt play and not the Bond adaptation that Sondheim's is adapted from. If someone wants to do Sweeney Todd, but doesn't have the capability to do a musical, the Bond version is available.
This is actually really cool. Anyone bitching has standards too high. This is a great effort, and a whole version in and of itself. If you've ever seen the older stage plays, you would know this is pretty damn good.
No, the singing is not required. There have been many versions without singing. Tim Burton's isn't the original, you know.
that bit when that girl comes and says u shouldnt had ever killed and he pushed her away and went meeeeeeeeeh THAT DIDNT HAPPEN IN FILUM U DESCUST ME U !!!!
so lets keep living it, just keep living it....really living it!
lol
it is kinda weird without the singing, i thought at first maybe it was the play version, but they used all the lyrics for the songs but without singing....
@shortnes I agree. Odd that there was no singing at the beginning. It was touching after Sweeny got rid of Mrs. Lovett and sang to Lucy. I wasnt't crazy about Toby shiwing up. Like it better in the movie where he sneaks up on Todd and kills him.
not the same without the singing in the beginning. it has no punch. the singing hits you in the heart. speaking the songs it just annoying. & the end was ......bad.
Just try to remember that Sweeney Todd was written for the STAGE and the movie means NOTHING. Yes it was a good movie but what you have just commented on was the actual musical, not the film. Don't suppose you would know what real theatre is.
LOOLOLOLOLOLOLOL THats not how mrs. lovett dies! I mean, I saw the broadway one online and the movie, and she was both throne into her oven. Another person said she got her throat slit, but almost everyone disagreed- guess pushing her off the stage is one of doing it! or down a hole works idk i can't really see! ;) ;) I still thought you did a great job though!
I didden't really like it, i thought it sounded abit silly how they were speaking the words to the song and how he suddenly started singing randomly when the rest of the song was spoken...when he embraced her i thought that was very un-enthusiastic i did the same mistake when i was in a play. I think if they could have watched themselves they would be able to make a vast improvement
Sweeney broke my heart with his reprise. Tobey was done all wrong, though. There was no purpose behind his actions, as if the actor just did what they did because the script called for it. BTW: is Toby a girl?
I played Anthony/MD in this production and thought id give some answers to questions. Firstly, music wise I totally agree that there should have been music (despite Luke and Becky being fantastic A Capella), but we werent given a score so any music you here on this clip was written and played by myself (some bits better than others) and was just my take on Sondheim's Music.
Secondly (and hel hate me for saying this) Luke you blatently forgot your words!
I didn't like Toby. He was supposed to be derranged. More soft spoken and rattled. Kind of fragile. And killing him was supposed to be much more spontaneous.
@glozone A WEEK?! Then they shouldn't have done it! A play has to have at LEAST 100 hours of rehearsal. Is this a rehearsal? I feel it's rather bleh. And it's very sad that your college doesn't provide proper necessities for a production. Very very sad...

Sweeney Todd without the music (The RIGHT music) is just pointless.
