The theatrical production of Sweeney Todd will hit the stage at the Palace Theatre from Dec. 11 through 16. Tickets are now on sale at www.BroadwayAcrossAmerica.com.

The story about the legendary demon barber, hell-bent on revenge, takes up with his enterprising neighbor in a delicious plot to slice their way through London's upper crust. In this innovative and ingenious story, justice will be served, along with bloody good thrills.

Although dark and chaotic, the show also includes lush melody and audacious humor. The story has been around for a long time, but experienced a Broadway revival last year. It is set to hit the big screen next year, starring Johnny Depp and directed by Tim Burton.

Moviegoers should get a headstart with a theatrical version, which naturally lends itself to a more intimate and dark ambience - perfect for an already intimate and dark story.

"It was written in the 70s and is a very dark musical, but the music is beautiful. It includes actors who sing and play instruments, which makes the show special in its own way," says Allison Thomas, public relations director at Broadway Across America - Columbus.

Directed by Tony Award winner John Doyle, with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by Hugh Wheeler, this dazzling reinvention of a magnificent musical thriller is set to stun theater audiences as never before.
