How about a Shave? Join the Cast of 'Sweeney Todd'

Come and visit your good friend Sweeney! Auditions of Oakton Community College’s production of the Tony-Award winning musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street are set for 6 – 9 p.m., Monday, September 9, and Tuesday, September 10, at Oakton’s Studio One, 1600 East Golf Road, Des Plaines. No appointment is necessary.

This thriller focuses on vengeance and culinary horror in 19th-century London. After a decade of wrongful imprisonment, Sweeney Todd thirsts for revenge over the men who rigged his conviction and destroyed his family. With his sinister landlady Mrs. Lovett, he embarks on a bloody, malevolent campaign in one of the most chilling musicals ever written.

The director is casting roles for males and females, ages 18 – 65. Come prepared with 16 bars of song, preferably from a Stephen Sondheim musical, or be ready to read from the script. Performance dates: November 14 – 17, and November 21 – 24.
