“Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” is back on the Great White Way for the first time since 2005.This time around, the story of a murderous barber will call the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre home when previews begin on Sunday, Feb. 26.The cast also features a murderer’s row of theater heavyweights including Josh Groban, Annaleigh Ashford, Jordan Fisher, Ruthie Ann Miles and “Stranger Things'” star Gaten Matarazzo.Not sold?For the first time since 1980, Sondheim’s Tony Award-winning score will be performed as it was in the original production.Plus, “Hamilton” director Thomas Kail is helming this iteration of the classic.And while ticket prices are rather high for the first few weeks after the crowd-pleasing musical opens, we’re happy to report that they’re a bit cheaper if you buy seats to see victims turned into meat pies far in advance.In fact, we found some tickets going for as low as $66 before fees on Vivid Seats for a matinee in May.All prices were found at the time of publication and are subject to fluctuation.Once ‘Sweeney Todd’ leaves Fleet Street and lands on 46th Street in Midtown Manhattan, the show will adopt a fairly typical schedule.Audiences can catch “Sweeney Todd” five nights a week from Tuesday through Saturday at 8 p.m.
