Berkshire steals the show
|
||||
A stage production that started life in a Berkshire theatre has gone on to win two awards at the theatre world's equivalent of the Oscars.
A production of Sweeney Todd which started life at the 200-seat Watermill Theatre in Newbury won two "Tony's", during a ceremony in New York. It took the best direction of a musical plaudit for John Doyle and best orchestrations for Sarah Travis. After making an impact in Newbury, the Steve Sondheim production about a killer barber went on to success in the West End and then Broadway. "The journey has been challenging," Ms travis said in her acceptance speech. "It's scary but always fulfilling and it's thanks firstly to Steve Sondheim. He has written the most brilliant score which continues to inspire and move people." John Doyle's production involves the cast also playing instruments and acting as the orchestra, a quirk that clearly set the production apart. "If you are going to revive something that had such a wonderful original production, then it's important, I think, to find a new way," he told Playbill.
