Aaron Tveit, Sutton Foster & Joe Locke's run of the Sweeney Todd Revival (2023-24) on Broadway. Delaney Westfall & Nathan Salstone in for Johanna & Anthony at this show on 4/4. View from front row Mezz (right).
I love how at the end of the finale Sweeney and Mrs Lovett walk off into the afterlife together realizing that now they both only have each other and jump into what is considered hell.
I literally was so mesmerized by joes performance I didn’t record the audio so thank you for this 🫶🏼❤️ I was teary eyed. He’s amazing. Aaron and Sutton were amazing. It was amazing.
Thank you for posting this. We were sitting in the front row on the right side and couldn’t see most of this scene. It was lovely to watch it and see this final scene.
of course!! Aaron made some really interesting acting choices for this too so I'm happy your able to catch them on this clip😊 I sat 2nd row the night after so I understand the struggle to see lol
Saw this production with both Josh and Aaron and while I personally think it's beyond brilliant, I didn't care for either Josh or Aaron's takes on the ending (perhaps it's the director's choice🤷). The way George Hearne wailed when he realizes he killed Lucy and the way he held her was heart breaking. And while both Joe Locke and Gaten were precious as Toby, nobody has ever come close to how Ken Jennings, the original Toby, portrayed him as this sweet, child like simpleton....both Joe and Gaten were missing that aspect...they played him as just a young man of no means...but you need to know that Toby isn't very bright, so that at the last moment when he turns into a killer, it's completely unexpected. The woman who played Lucy both times I saw it (not Ruthie Ann) was rather forgettable, but again the Lucy in the Hearne production was incredible...she carried a ratty old bag and had a rag doll that she talked to and cooed over. Just little things like that I missed. The girl who plays Johanna in this production is amazing. Her Greenfinch and Linnet bird was exceptional...you could tell that Johanna is starting to go mad being locked up...she gives her all these tics, which is quite effective. I absolutely LOVE how they jump into nothingness in the end. The ensemble and staging of this is so well done. I wish they'd bring in two more Broadway heavy hitters to continue as Sweeney and Lovett. It deserves to run much longer. Thank you for uploading these clips! ❤❤❤❤
>The way George Hearne wailed when he realizes he killed Lucy and the way he held her was heart breaking. Agree big time. Him screaming in horror over Lucy's body on the floor, while Angela Lansbury is singing "yes I lied 'cuz I looooove yooooou..." 😩👌
I was hoping to see this comment!! The movie made it seem very unexoected, I audibly gasped because I wasn't familiar with the story line. This was underwhelming and anticlimactic
Agreed. It felt like there was no build-up. In this staging it's clear she knows what he's up to yet she allows him to drag her to the oven. So many things about this production feel off to me.
you are so welcome!! im really sorry, i dont have a full slime, this is all the content - will keep checking though i maybe have a couple of clips to upload as shorts :)
@@tillie0305 no problem, i was just wondering since i sadly wasn’t able to watch sweeney todd before it closes tomorrow since i live halfway across the globe. thank you though!!
of course lovely!! i did not want to gatekeep lol and so happy they are reaching the right audience - I am missing some scenes since my phone cut out loads and quality isn't great towards beginning of the show, but if you can hang on I will have a few more parts up later today🤞🤞
