Sorry,I should have pinged you....hanging my head in shame.
"SWEENY TODD"? Oh gee....Sondheim in his garbage era,though not quite as bad as others he's written. Poor you.
I'm finding the show an interesting challenge...funny enough. If only to prove that I have a decent ear, and can still sing an atonal alto line without going flat. (Ha! Can't say the same for some of our tenors....but we have only started rehearsing) *L*
Not much cheer...although, the black comedy of this piece appeals to me.
Will let you know how it goes.
For a semi-amateur Society we've a 21 piece orchestra - which is quite big, which may help the production.
