Sweeney Todd in Review

Just got back from "Sweeney Todd," and I have to say I'm dumbfounded. Not because the production was great, but because one, the high school has a lot of guts for taking on such a tricky play, two, for reminding me how great this play is, and three, for giving me hope. This really is Tim Burton stuff. Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter will have a lot to prove, but I think they can do it (Sacha Baron Cohen is a stretch, though). This just got bumped up two spots on my "Most Anticipated" list (sorry, but I'm a teenager. The Simpsons Movie is still #1).
