The history of the world, my sweet, is who gets eaten and who gets to eat! But fortunately it’s also clear— that everybody goes down well with beer! And a side of ECT. Or at least that’s what’s being served up as Vagabond Players kicks off their 111th season this fall with their innovative and visionary new production of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.
Art and entertainment are not mutually exclusive; something can tickle your funny bone and give you great pause for appreciation. And vice versa. It’s what Ian Shaw & Joseph Nixon’s script The Shark is Broken sets out to prove. It’s now appearing— the area community premiere— at Vagabond Players, kicking off the back-half of the 110th season! Directed by Stephen Deininger, this fast-paced, truth-based theatrical engagement gives audiences a deeper look at what really happens when filming for a movie gets stalled in tight quarters.
