Author's Notes (Excerpted from the program of the 1979 Broadway production of Sweeney Todd-The Demon Barber of Fleet Street)
There have been at least seven versions of Sweeney Todd since George Dibdin-Pitt's original melodrama was first perfonned in 1847 at The Britannia, a london ''Bloodbath'' theatre whose admirable objective was to stun its audiences with a holocaust of thrills, horrors and shocks. But even before this Sweeney Todd, the legendary and mad barber, was the hero of a "penny dreadful" (one of the news sheets sold on street corners in Victorian days) and since then for more than a century in England he has become a household word. "Sweeney Todd will get you if you don't watch out" has been more than enough to send countless thousands of recalcitrant children scurrying to finish their porridge or to jump into bed on time However, it is not only the children who are haunted by Sweeney Todd. He is the demon, the half-admitted shadowy lodger, who lurks in the back of all our minds. Not a barber to be trifled with.
The latest adaptation of this durable story, by Christopher Bond, was performed at the Theatre Royal, Stratford, london in 1973 and, being by far the most expert and the most unnerving, is the version on which this musical thriller is based.
Whereas: she contributed in such large measure to the advancement of the cultural arts in the Ann Arbor area, in Washtenaw County, and in the State of Michigan, and
Whereas: she participated wholeheartedly in the activities of and devoted countless evenings and weeksnds to the Ann Arbor Civic Theatre, and
Whereas: she provided gifted leadership through her service on the AACT Board of Directors and as its President, and
Whereas: using her boundless energy and enthusiasm, she has always been around 'making things go right;
Therefore: The Ann Arbor Civic Theatre gratefully recognizes the outstanding contributions of
Carol Deniston and, with sorrow, mourn her passing. We will all miss her.
january 13, 1992 AACT Board of Directors
Whereas: she was instrumental in the formation of and a founding member of the Ann Arbor Civic Theatre, and
Whereas: she participated actively in and remained a member of the Theatre for over 62 years, and
Whereas: as a result, she contributed immeasurable to the advancement of the cultural arts in the Ann Arbor area, and in Washtenaw County, and
Whereas: she provided highly regarded leadership, keen insight, and an valuable historical perspective throughout her long association with the AACl; and
Whereas: she brightened our lives with her ready smile and gracious chann,
Therefore: The Ann Arbor Civic Theatre gratefully recognizes the outstanding contributions of
Mary A. Kessel and, with sorrow, mourn her passing. We will all miss her smiling face and wann heart.

Director's Comments To say that I care about and adore SWEENEY TODD would be an understatement, but when AAa decided to present my old friend this
season, I had mixed emotions as to what part I would like to play in the production. I can remember sitting in the audience of the Uris, now Gershwin Theatre, night after night: in awe of Hal Prince's creative vision; overwhelmed by the genius of Stephen Sondheim; in shock that I was actually a part of this wonderful theatrical experience. But deep in my heart I knew that I really wanted to be Angela lansbury, the most generous, talented performer I had ever worked with or watched. So when I heard of AAG's production of SWEENEY TODD, my first thought was "this is my chance''-Angela time had arrived. After about a month of that fantasy, it finally occurred to me that what I really wanted was not to perfonn, but to take as many of my wonderful memories of that New York e~<perience. and try to re-create as much of my old friend as I could.
~ have to be honest -the entire budget of this production is the same as the cost of costumes for one scene of the Broadway show! Our advantage here at Ann Arbor Civic Theatre. however, is that while we don't have a lot of money to spend on our productions, we do have the love and caring of hundreds of volunteers, the resources of a 60·year history, and the advantage of being in the same town as the grand and wonderful University of Michigan, who are our master teachers and generous nudgers. To Dean Paul Boylan and the incredible staff of the Theatre Department and Power Center, my most humble thanks. To old friends who have come out of the woodwork of my life to design, organizt. build, and fulfill the holes of good theatre, my deepest thanks. But most of all to my dear, dear friend of many years, Jim Posantt. who, when hearing that I was going to be facing my greatest personal tragedy sometime during SWEENEY'S rehearsal period, this cherished friend came to me and offered his time. his wonderful talent, and his caring friendship ... I can only offer him my love and respect and loyalty for a long time to comt.
To the cast and crew of SWEENEY TODD, the musical creators and directors know that you are the best and I am proud to be a part of all of you. Thank you. I would like to dedicate my l011e for SWEENEY TODD and this production to my husband-and his wonderful memory.
