Sweeney Todd: A Chicagoan? Nah, But We Can Dream
First off, let’s get one thing straight: Sweeney Todd is a Londoner through and through. The guy’s got a thing for Fleet Street, not Lake Michigan. But hey, who's to say a talented producer couldn’t give this grisly tale a Chicago makeover? Imagine Sweeney sporting a Cubs cap and Mrs. Lovett serving up deep-dish meat pies.
Tip: Take your time with each sentence.
The Appeal of a Chicago Sweeney Todd

Tip: Highlight what feels important.
So, Will He or Won’t He?
As of now, there's no official word on a Chicago Sweeney Todd production. But with the city’s thriving theater scene, anything is possible. We can keep our fingers crossed and our razors sharp.
Tip: Let the key ideas stand out.
