Sweeney Todd is the infamous story of Benjamin Barker, who sets up a barber shop down in London and begins a sinister partnership with his fellow tenant, Mrs. Lovett. Her physical appearance varies from a slim and alluring beauty, to a plump, homely lunatic. Her age is also differing in many adaptations; though it is never specifically stated in any versions, there are some (most noticeably in Sondheim's musical) where she is older than Todd, often by a difference of over fifteen years and others where she is around his age. Whether their relationship is platonic, romantic, or merely sexual also varies according to interpretation. [3] [4] Role in the musical [ edit ] The Sondheim Review. (n.d.).
