Sweeney Todd

Charismatic Welsh bass-baritone Bryn Terfel plays the title role opposite Emma Thompson's Mrs. Lovett as the New York Philharmonic mounts a staged presentation of Stephen Sondheim's delectable Guignol, with Alan Gilbert conducting. Given how good the Phil is at this kind of thing, expect tickets to get scarfed up faster than Mrs. Lovett's meat pies.
