Sweeney Todd – "My Friends"

Oct 21, 2024

A couple of shots from the number “My Friends” as Sweeney is presented with his old razors. Mrs Lovett had saved them. Three tries and never did get the presentation shot I wanted – in the best one they were just too far apart to make for an effective shot. It was on my list for a fourth attempt but I was grabbed to make video clips instead. The problem is vantage point – I had to work that all the way from far left to far right in order to get my shots, some being a longer and faster trek than others:

Next, “Green Finch and Tinnet Bird” – the far right being the only vantage that gave a good framing for the window.

SWEENEY TODD is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.www.mtishows.com
