Saw the show last night and the woman sitting next to me was hysterical as it was very clear she had no idea what she was getting into 😂😂😂
Idk when you went, but omg that sounds funny. When I went there was a family sitting in front of me with a child, and the kid's reactions were priceless. She was like, "Is that a real bird??" mostly confusion. Man...RIP. Looked about 9 years old.
Sweeney Todd is my favorite musical. I was explaining the premise to my therapist, and I could keep seeing him slightly jumping from surprise.
"Yeah yeah, they got it." 🤣🤣
I got my therapist a poster from the show since her fav actor plays Mrs. Lovett. XD Gotta love therapists who love Sweeney Todd.
My favorite musical too ever since I saw the original stage production in the '70s with Len Cariou and Angela Lansbury 🗡🩸‼️
I just can't help but think about the Andy Bernard cold open from the Office.
saw him in Sweeney Todd earlier today. He and everyone else in the cast were amazing!
I saw the show today and it was amazing. Josh is sooo talented. Everyone was amazing but Josh soooo good ❤❤❤❤
Americone Dream is sold in Canada (without Stephen's photo) as Oh Cone-ada.
Josh Groban sings Kanye tweets is still one of the funniest things ever.
Have you seen his singing Tripadvisor reviews? Pure gold!
@@donnalum4413 No I have not but I am now gonna go find it.
UPDATE: Oh. My. God. Brilliant!!!
@@donnalum4413 - That one is the greatest thing ever!!!!
@@Jivolt fee fi fo fum
I want too hear all the fun parts
Greatest casting ever
I got to see Sweeney Todd a month ago live in New York City. The show was amazing!!
He is so talented and funny
So much talent... He's comedian too!!!❤️❤️❤️
Oh, I'd kill for a meat pie about now.
Anyone….errrr….kind in particular?
Lmao thats so punny 😅
well, you'd have to, right?!
Have a little priest?
@@scubageek17Or butler? Not as subtle as locksmith, though.
Love the Groban, ya gotta have it in your life
Saw the show the beginning of January it was incredible!!!!!!
I got to see him when I bunked off with my Dad on his business trip to NYC. OMG it was the BEST thing ever! I love Sweeney Todd and he is the perfect Sweeney!
Can't wait i will be in NYC to see that in a week.
May I recommend xantham gum to the bakers? It does help with achieving a better texture from gluten-free baked goods. A touch more ice water than usual can also help with pastry crusts.
Oh I wish I could see this production! I need a trip to New York
Me, too‼️
So Walter jr. is now stealing his brother Andy's thunder in doing Sweeney Todd? That was Andy's Play!
Came here for this comment. It was all I could think about when I saw the clip! 😂
He was outstanding... although this show was all about Annaleigh Ashford. She was absolutely amazing!
Never saw the show, but saw the movie version starring Johnny Depp years ago. But my mother saw one of the productions back in the 20th century.
I really like the movie too. (Love Johnny Depp!) The Broadway show right now is absolutely amazing- hopefully you can catch it! 🥰
I went into Sweeney Todd almost completely blind, and I was not expecting Annaleigh Ashford at all. She was amazing, best part of the show. It goes without saying that Josh Groban has an amazing voice, but damn. Annaleigh is so dynamic, so funny without it being heavy-handed.
@@jeeither I love how you stated that. It was the "subtle power" Annaleigh has that is amazing.
You cut the best part -- where the band plays out on "Poinciana" for Ahmad Jamal.
Oops, no, I forgot the section where that was played -- my bad. Sorry.
Sweeny is an awesome musical, Josh will be equally as awesome
Where is George Hearn in that Sweeney lineup? My fave (and the best ;)) Sweeney
Len Cariou
Saw it last night and god it is good. And bold of Josh to assume Hugh Jackman didn’t go home and commit sales fraud or something.
Actually that statement about “The Music Man” is even more ironic in hindsight. As Sutton Foster, who played Marian the Librarian, is replacing Annaleigh Ashford as Mrs. Lovett.
I saw Sweeney Todd once on stage (and saw the Johnny Depp movie, which was OK I guess). It's hard to write a good dark musical but this is definitely that. The story is full of male judges abusing their power and threats of deportation so it is *very* 2023.
Wow!!!!!!!
Swear I saw a horrific Mrs. Lovett's story about a tamale lady recently and immediately thought of Sweeney Todd.
Is that Lord Joshington III, Slayer of the Silk Minotaur?
Now I must go see Sweeney Todd
it could be worse: vegan-gluten-free- low-carb meat pie
Andy Bernard must've punched a hole in a wall over this news
That Annaleigh pops...Groban likes his ladies to pop
Lindo maravilhoso demais por dentro e por fora e bem engraçadinho fico feliz em ver você sorrindo Rio de Janeir Brasil Pavuna Saúde e Paz estou te esperando com seu Show aqui no Rio de Janeiro Vem logo Rio de Janeiro Brasil Pavuna Saúde
Singing about how bad it is? Is it weird that I instantly knew he was talking about Worst Pies In London 😂
OH MY GOD, ITS JOSH GROBAN. *,.,* As Sweeny Todd?!?!?!
Live in NYC.
Come see.
Calling it "The Demon Barber of Fleet Street," does that indicate that Every street has a demon barber?
There may be demon barbers on other streets.
Speaking of being back on Broadway, Stephen?
Ted de Corsia talk about lee van cleef
Too bad, I won’t travel to the usa anymore. Not for work, or vacation. 🙁 I love J.G. 🙏
Why not?
@@bonnierobinson8684 too much violence, hate, arrogance, division & ignorance
Wait a minute...
50th anniversary of Americone Dream? 🤔
Josh Groban watched "Sweeney Todd" as a little boy??? 😬
I need some explanations here.
I think he meant to say 15th
The show is 44 years old and Josh is 50. It's possible he first saw or heard the show as a child.
@@markschildberg1667 Josh is only 42. He has said he saw a regional production of Sweeney when he was younger (my guess from ages 10-15) and probably watched the proshots of previous productions.
@@markschildberg1667 I don't know which show you're talking about. Is Sweeny Todd a TV show? I thought it was a play. Regardless, that comment was about anyone letting their little kid watch such a story. That's adult content.
@@leavingitblank9363 It's a show. It doesn't have to be on TV to be called a show. I mean, they don't call them "showtunes" for nothing.
Groban likes his ladies to pop.
(Josh, you're supposed to spit that awful stuff out)
He's got the voice but not the look for Sweeney. Too innocent.
I saw it a couple of weeks ago and I thought the same 'till he walked on stage, he really does have sweet features, but the contrast with his tired and grim look and those expressions (in the show) does feel like a good fit for his back story. During the show, and specifically in the end he's quite terrifying...
One of the aspects of the character is that he was a normal loving father and husband who was wronged. He didn't start out as a demon slayer....he was turned into one.
Josh Groban looking innocent is the entire point, as Sweeney Todd is a subversion of a romantic lead. Benjamin Barker was a loving husband and doting father who’s life was destroyed by a corrupt judge. He returned to London to reunite with his family, only to be told his wife was dead and his daughter held captive. Revenge and anger turned him into a bigger monster than the story’s villain.
I just saw it the other day. He comes off very sad and very tortured, his grief is palpable. But menacing? No. But I didn't have a problem with it. His singing made up for anything he may have been lacking.
I love him so much! So talented...love his voice....but he always looks like he needs a shower to me...maybe the shaggy beard.
Stephen, for a good comedian you sure have poor timing in interviews. Groban delivers a brilliant line and obviously has more to say, but you cut him off for a break. You do this a lot.
@Josh Groban You're fake. Go away.
Nice job deleting your fake come-on.
If only Josh would shave the beard.
He looks like he's 13 without the beard, and he needs to keep the middle-aged man look for Sweeney Todd.
@@Pretzils1031 bit he's worn the beard for years now. I know my opinion doesn't matter at all. But I think he's more attractive without it. (I'm am oldish lady, so I'm at the age where I'm not trying to rob a cradle...)
Johnny Depp will always be my Sweeney Todd! ❤
I love Josh Groban, but he's a light lyric baritone and the role of Sweeney was written for a bass baritone (like Len Cariou, George Hearn, and Bryn Terfel - all amazing Sweeneys.) Josh's voice is a little too light, smooth, and warm; he's also a little young for the role. Same with the actress who plays Mrs. Lovett. They're both excellent singers and actors, but their interpretation feels to me like Sweeney Todd Lite.
Josh Groban is several years older than Len Cariou was, when he originated the role. The character is actually quite a bit younger, than everyone thinks.
i feel old, i dont understand this guys appeal
Have you heard him sing? He's gotta beautiful, Broadway voice
Not nust that, opera and classical.
Beauty is ageless.
Listen to his 'Un Amore Per Sempre'.
I hope you discover why this 68 year old loves him...
He's uber talented, kind, charming, good looking, funny...yeah, I can't see why anyone would like him 🙄😂

Love PIE!!!
