there is SO much depth and beauty in the stories we hear in sweeney todd. a murderer who was once a doting father, so blind with hatred and anger towards the world that he couldnāt even see his own wife and daughter, staring him right in the face. a woman down on her luck and in love, trying so desperately to make a connection with a deeply broken and disturbed human. an unfortunately innocent and unknowing boy who ended up being the one who could sense the dark truth. a love at first sight that refused to die, even when torn apart by the disgusting perversion of a greedy abuser. sweeney todd is about all of these people, doing absolutely horrible things, all out of some form of love. thatās the beauty of sweeney todd. sweeney killed for a father and husbandās love. lovett baked real people with real lives into pies to maintain a shallow, lustful relationship she impossibly dreamed would bloom into true romance. turpin destroyed an innocent family because he could not contain his āloveā for a pretty woman and her daughter. toby slit a throat because his mother figure was all he had, and he loved her, simply and purely, as an innocent child loves a mother. their love is the purest of all in the story.
but my point is ā yes, sweeney todd is about a murderer and his accomplice who cannibalizes and sells his victims. but itās not. sweeney todd is about love. how love is even stronger and more dangerous than the deepest hate. itās about how love can destroy people. this show is so beautifully, deeply, disgustingly human. and this dark, telling tale is somehow warped into some of the most gorgeous music to ever be written and made hilarious, lovable, and entertaining. musical theatre is truly magic. human nature is love and filth and greed. sweeney todd perfectly embodies both of these ideas.

What if we were old and we did cannibalism murder and I was in love with you but you wanted vengeance for your dead wife. Hm? What if?

Sweeney Todd fanart finally! This is taken straight from a 2023 Broadway Revival screenshot of Annaleigh Ashford as Mrs. Lovett. I had a lot of fun figuring out what I wanted with it, but yes it nearly killed me. I also listened to the new recording on repeat a lot for this and I can't stand it anymore. Still love it, though. Lineart vers. below the cut, with some color + ref image.

[ID below caption.]
> a quick sketch of mista todd and missus lovett. the only british people i care about rn.
[ID: A traditional pencil sketch of Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett from Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Mrs. Lovette is on the left smiling, looking at Sweeney Todd with a rolling pin help up in one hand. She is wearing a black dress and apron. Sweeney Todd is on the right, looking away from Mrs. Lovette to the knife in his hand, grinning. He is wearing a large white button-down, tucked into black dress pants with suspenders. Next to him is the text "Serving anyone- & to anyone!" in all capitals. End ID.]

yes iām fine sorry i was just zoning out but right before sweeney kills lucy he says āthe judgeā¦ i have no time!ā and mrs. lovett represents the virtue of patience in the show and she had sang a whole song telling him to wait and take things slow and relax and think through his decisions.
the thing that destroys everyone in this show is impatience. if anthony had waited before intruding on sweeney and the judge, if sweeney had stopped obsessing when and where and how he could kill the beadle and judge, if sweeney hadnāt felt suffocated by the crushing, endless force of time and looked his own little girl and his wife in the eye and really thought and reached into the soul that was still in him, sweeney todd wouldnāt be the tragedy that it is. human nature bitches human nature
