"Sweeney Todd, The Demon Barber of Fleet Street," will make its Southeastern North Carolina premiere at Givens Performing Arts Center on the campus of UNC Pembroke for one night only Friday, Feb. 6, at 8 p.m.

This production features a multi-talented ensemble of 10 talented actor/musicians.

"Sweeney Todd" is based on the 19th century legend of a London barber driven to a life of crime after a malevolent judge takes his wife and child from him. Sweeney's plan for revenge includes a cutthroat partnership with Mrs. Lovett -- an enterprising businesswoman -- who is soon producing the tastiest meat pies in London.
