So a song (specifically "Johanna") from the movie/musical Sweeney Todd popped into my head and I couldn't get it out of my head, nor could I stop thinking about how multifaceted it is. The story written is a magnificent one and gives me more appreciation for Stephen Sondheim who already is my favorite Broadway composer. I've always liked him because after a while, I got tired of the same old kind of Broadway show with the sparkles and big cast numbers, basically most of Andrew Lloyd Webber's work. I like something dark, something that is edgy, something that makes me think and Sonheim's work is almost always all three of those things and at minimum, just taking everything from a different, interesting viewpoint (such as Into the Woods). But back to the big question, who is the hero of Sweeney Todd?
