Sweeney Todd - Alex Robertson - My Friends

[Amythomas1000]

Well, contradicting the views of some of the commenters on here, I thought the Mrs. Lovett was absolutely spectacular, and I'd like to see them do better! As for the Sweeney, I loved him! He was AMAZING! :D

[spongebobslushpants1]

This guy is PERFECT as Todd. Dare I say even better or at least equal to Mr. Johnny Depp himself. Bravo.

[FleetStreetNightmare]

Is this you? If it is, you make a fantastic Sweeney! I can't believe that this was put on entirely by students. Very very impressive. Mrs. Lovett is also very good, I love her voice, and I like the character design for the show. Both Sweeney and Lovett fit their parts very well.

[MademoisellePhantom]

Sweeney = amazing.

Everything else = mediocre.

It would have been amazing with a different Lovett, orchestra, and better scene shifts. It's a shame because Sweeney's voice was stunningly powerful.

You may have to forgive me for this, but I have put on may productions in my lifetime. First, the acting is great, It is just difficult to pay attention to the acting with the major tone problems, and the pithiness that sounds like an attempted sforzandos throughout Sweeney's part in this duet. Pick a tonality and stick with it. Try starting at a softer volume. The girl's volume was more appropriate for the part. This is obviously high school level work.

@kamonjason would love to see some of you're productions - im assuming they're perfect.

[identityalex22]

@kamonjason I appreciate what you're saying but also take into account the sound quality of the video here. Volumes would have been different live.

@kamonjason I appreciate what you're saying but also take into account the sound quality of the video here. Volumes would have been different live. Also, yes this was a university production produced completely by students.

Alex Robertson succeeds where Johnny Depp fails miserably! This is wonderful

[imsweeneytodd]

something about Lovett is weird. idk

but Sweeney is amazing! awesome voice

[cygnusXhaust]

@imsweeneytodd She seems under-confident. She starts singing each of her lines waaaaaaaay too softly only to realize she's doing so and get louder as quickly as she can. I wonder if she was a little in awe of Mr. Robertson... which would ironically be appropriate for building the proper relationship between the two characters.

I am blown away.

I love this show, and have tried to see/hear as many people in these roles as possible. And this Sweeney is just... phenomenal. The voice, the acting, the poise, the look -- what a great escaped-Victorian-prisoner-loo­k, seriously! And he's SO in the role. I love it. His facial expressions reflect so many moods, and that fragile mental state where you know he might snap and go totally crazy, but you also feel *really* bad for him as a human being.

[tekie26]

OMG! I love his voice. It's haunting

[XSpinDriftedX]

good lord :O  wow.

[1037pm]

Sweeneys talent is friggin amazing.

Look...not my favorite.

But talent.

Dude.

You should tour or be on broadway for this show

[Scar2401]

you have a FANTASTIC voice, my friend. let me ask, is this a college performance or community theater. either way, you are AMAZING. perfectly sinister.you shall go down in Sweeney Todd history!

[elfking217]

very impressive. one of the best performances of this song that i have seen. especially the "At last..." part...very nice.

[broadwaybound1000]

Wow that's really good! :)

[bwaygirl234]

You are certainly an amazing sweeney. like, PERFECT casting. voice, acting, looks, everything. perfection.

mrs. lovett bugs me tho...

[alexboi10]

One thing to say to you Alex Robertson: "I am very jealous! Very good voice and a fantastic song from the greatest play EVER! I love it and your voice is great matey! Well done! 10/10"

[skillsmills18]

Sounds good but i wish he would use more dynamic contrast but he is very good. His face during epiphany is uncannied, almost demonic. good job

[sorg54]

This guy is really good!

[Steve12085]

This is absolutely amazing.

[somuch4freedom]

[mrimpossible41]

HOLY CRAP dude u r one of the best i have seen u might even rival george hern or johnny. u got some wicked faces gong on during this song and when u sang epiphany WOW very well done superb. I did sweeney in school and i freaked a few parents and kids out when i went into the audience for epiphany but u were outstanding

[Perish2489]

Go Alex. One of my great mates, u shud have seen him play Valjean in Les Mis

[Sanguwich]

You did a very good job with this. Well done. one of the best homegrown ones (if not the best i've seen on the internet) of 'My Friends'
