Edgy, Entertaining, Chilling, Great singing, Intense

See it if you love re-imagined works. One of the best! Brilliant in its concept and execution. This is a Sweeney that will creep you out.

Don't see it if you expect a conventional production. If you don't like Sweeney start with this won't help.

Ambitious, Exquisite, Edgy, Great staging

See it if you want to see a brilliant, dark, and originally staged Sondheim classic! You can never go wrong with LuPone and Cerveris.

Don't see it if you don't like Sondheim or dark disturbing subject matter.

Clever, Delightful, Entertaining, Great acting, Riveting

See it if you love LuPone enough to watch her play the tuba, appreciate multi-talented actors, love a morbid Tim Burtonesque Sondheim musical.

Don't see it if you really need staging and choreography to get into a show. Probably easier to follow if you've seen the fully staged version first.
