Southern California can attend the tale of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street with the opening of the Stephen Sondheim-Hugh Wheeler favorite at Pasadena's A Noise Within Repertory Company February 17.

A Noise Within Co-Artistic Director Julia Rodriguez-Elliott is at the helm of the tale of revenge and retribution, featuring music and lyrics by Sondheim and a book by Wheeler.

The production stars Co-Artistic Director Geoff Elliott in the title role, joined by resident artists Cassandra Marie Murphy as Mrs. Lovett, Jeremy Rabb as Judge Turpin, Kasey Mahaffy as Adolfo Pirelli, Joanna A. Jones as Johanna, James Everts as Anthony Hope, Harrison White as Beadle Bamford, Amber Liekhus as the Beggar Woman, and Josey Montana McCoy as Tobias.

The creative team features scenic designer François-Pierre Couture, lighting designer Ken Booth, sound designer Jeff Gardner, costume designer Angela Balogh Calin, wig and makeup designer Tony Valdés, properties designer Stephen Taylor, dialect coach Andrea Odinov, and dramaturg Dr. Miranda Johnson-Haddad. Angela Sonner serves as production stage manager alongside assistant stage manager Mikayla Bettner.

"Sweeney Todd is Shakespearean in scope, and that’s what we do best at A Noise Within. We tell epic stories in an intimate space, up close and personal, in a way that brings the humanity and the truth of the piece to the forefront," said Rodriguez-Elliott in a statement.

A Noise Within is offering a number of accessible options for performances, including nine weekday student matinees beginning at 10:30 AM.
