Join the NYNCS for a free outdoor performance of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street on the grounds of the Old Stone House in Brooklyn. The performance is in Washington Park, adjacent to the house, so bring your own blanket or low chairs as well as food and drink if you wish. Concession with beer, wine, meatpies (!), and sweet treats will be available for purchase. Look for Morgana, Kenny, and other NYNCS members to meet up on the lawn and enjoy this special performance. The event is free, but donations to the theatre will be gratefully accepted.
Sweeney Todd is a fictional character who first appeared as the main protagonist of the Victorian penny dreadful The String of Pearls (1846–47), and became a staple of Victorian melodrama. It was adapted into a musical in 1979.
Can’t make it on July 18th? Sweeney Todd will also be performed at the Old Stone House on July 9, 10, 11, 16, 17. See theoldstonehouse.org/event/sweeney-todd/ for more information.
