Written by a team of arrangers known as The Fleet Street Collective, Sweeney Todd - Prog Metal Version premiered in August 2014 as part of Landless Theatre's "Summer of Rock." The show was nominated for three Helen Hayes Awards, including Outstanding Musical.
The company will next offer The Mystery of Edwin Drood (Symphonic Metal Version).
The Fred Ebb Award recognizes excellence in musical theatre songwriting, by a songwriter or songwriting team that has not yet achieved significant commercial success.
