Sweeney Todd
'Sweeney Todd' is a musical thriller about a 19th century London barber who goes on a murderous rampage. In the past, the evil Judge Turpin framed Todd (known then as Benjamin Barker) and raped his young wife. Todd was unjustly incarcerated in a penal colony for 15 years. However, when the show begins, Todd has managed to return to London and has come seeking revenge. He rents a room over the shop of Mrs. Lovett, the proprietress of a struggling pie shop. Todd's thirst for blood soon expands to include not only the judge but also his unfortunate customers. Meanwhile, Mrs. Lovett happily puts the bodies in the meat grinder and uses the human meat in her meat pies -- which become extremely popular with the citizens of London.

Music Theatre at AIM

The Music Theatre department is committed to developing the student's understanding of the broader arena of music theatre. Students are skilled in the three disciplines of singing, dancing and acting and are also taught skills which will enable them to be work creators. All studies are focused on developing students who have an understanding of creating new works, production and performance.

The Music Theatre student has chosen to study at the Institute primarily because of the emphasis on the music in theatre. They come from many areas of skill development. The singer will come to embrace the music culture at the Institute, the dancer and the actor to find their singing voice. Students at the Institute bring a rich diversity of purpose.

Music Theatre students develop the ear of a musician, the body awareness of a dancer, the imagination of an actor, the vision of a director and the fortitude of a producer.
