### Event Description: Sondheim & Wheeler’s Sweeney Todd at Utah Opera

**Event Overview:**
Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd, Stephen Sondheim’s twisted story of love, revenge, and infamous meat pies, just before Halloween. Set in the dark heart of Victorian-era London, this opera follows Sweeney Todd, a wrongly exiled barber, as he seeks retribution against the lecherous Judge Turpin, the architect of his ruin. With a razor-sharp thirst for vengeance, Todd’s path converges with the cunning pie shop owner Mrs. Lovett. Together, they form a macabre partnership, crafting meat pies that satiate more than just hunger. The relentless pursuit of justice takes a chilling turn as Todd’s razor weaves a narrative that blurs the line between justice and savagery.
