Josh Groban 'flexes his inner demons' with Annaleigh Ashford in Broadway's 'Sweeney Todd'

“Sweeney Todd” tells the story of the demon barber of Fleet Street. Played by singer/songwriter Josh Groban in Broadway’s revival of the Stephen Sondheim show, Todd comes home after being falsely imprisoned and losing his wife and child. On a rampage of murderous revenge, he kills his victims using a straight razor and sends them to Mrs. Lovett, who bakes them into meat pies for unsuspecting customers.

What’s Groban, one of the country’s best-selling artists with top hits like “You Raise Me Up” and “The Prayer,” doing in this Broadway show that toes the line between horror and comedy?
