When I last checked the US Tour cast on the Broadway website, it listed Mark Evans as Elder Price and Chris O'Neill as Elder Cunningham but I've just had a look again and it's gone back to listing Gavin Creel and Jared Gertner as Price and Cunningham respectively....maybe they let that one out too early?

EDIT: Sorry, just seen that this was mentioned earlier! Pretend this never happened.... :P

It was an idea the original director, Hal Prince, provided. You may think the whistle in this production is loud, then listen to the Original Broadway Cast recording.

The point is that the whistle is blown with such velocity that it almost sounds like an ear piercing scream, which adds to the musical's horror. The whistle in this production however does not produce that amount of velocity, and in a way I am quite relieved that this was the case.

I was also quite relieved. It is also why I avoid listening to the OBC of Sweeney Todd on my iPod whilst in public (on the bus, tube etc) as the whistle is so ear-piercingly loud and I forget where it comes every time and I jump right out of my seat!

Seeing the show for the first time this month, and would just like to know what time the show tends to finish, just that I will also be seeing Jest End afterwards, so would like to know how much I time I have inbetween :-)

Some time around the 10.10pm/10.20pm area! :)

Apparently (all sourced from twitter, Harriet Thrope I think) Rufus Norris had to go on as Clifford last night!
