How many versions/remakes of ';Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street'; are there?
There were 15-16 versions of the play/movie/tv of it: Here are the versions from Wikipedia's list :
* The String of Pearls was adapted as a melodrama in 1847 by George Dibden Pitt and opened at Hoxton's Britannia Theatre, and billed as ';founded on fact';. It was something of a success, and the story spread by word of mouth and took on the quality of an urban legend. Various versions of the tale were staples of the British theatre for the rest of the century.
* Circa 1865, a dramatic adaption called Sweeney Todd, the Barber of Fleet Street: or the String of Pearls written by Frederick Hazleton premiered at the Old Bower Saloon, Stangate Street, Lambeth.[2]
* In 1936 a film version of the Victorian melodrama was made, called Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street, starring Tod Slaughter in the title role.
* ';Sweeney Todd, The Barber'; is a song that assumes its audience knows the stage version and claims that such a character in real life was even more remarkable, yet it contains most of the story portrayed in the theater and cinema. Stanley Holloway, who recorded it in 1956, attributed it to R. P. Weston, a songwriter active from 1906 to 1934.
* An adaptation of the Sweeney Todd story was prominently featured in an episode of the radio drama The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes entitled ';The Strange Case of the Demon Barber'; on 8 January 1946.
* In 1947, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's CBC Stage Series broadcast a radio adaptation of the Pitt play starring Mavor Moore as Todd, Jane Mallett as Mrs. Lovett, John Drainie as Tobias, Lloyd Bochner as Mark Ingesterie and Arden Kaye as Johanna Oakley. The production was adapted by Ronald Hamilton and directed by Andrew Allan, with original music composed by Lucio Agostini.
* On 10 December 1959 the Royal Ballet premiered a ballet based on the story with music by Malcolm Arnold. The choreography was directed by John Cranko.
* A version of the story is told in the 1970 horror film Bloodthirsty Butchers, directed by Andy Milligan.
* In 1970, Freddie Jones starred as the title character in the episode ';Sweeney Todd'; on the ITV series Mystery and Imagination, an adaptation by Vincent Tilsey from the Pitt play that changed the character of Todd from a fiendish murderer to a deluded madman; the production was directed by Reginald Collin. Heather Canning played Mrs. Lovett, Lewis Fiander played Mark Ingesterie, Mel Martin played the heroine Charlotte and Len Jones played Tobias.
* The 1973 CBC TV series The Purple Playhouse featured a production of Sweeney Todd, with Barry Morse (best known for his role as ';Lt. Gerard'; in The Fugitive) as Todd. This was again Pitt's version of the play.
* The British playwright Christopher Bond wrote a 1973 play titled Sweeney Todd. This version of the story was the first to give Todd a more sympathetic motive: he is a wrongfully imprisoned barber named Benjamin Barker who returns under the name Sweeney Todd to London after 15 years in an Australian penal colony to find that the judge responsible for his imprisonment has raped his young wife and driven her to suicide. He swears revenge, but when his plans face obstacles, he begins to slash the throats of his customers. This new element of Todd being motivated by vengeance was Bond's way of grafting dramatic themes from The Revenger's Tragedy onto Pitt's stage plot.
* In 1979, Bond's version was adapted by Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler into a hit Broadway musical under the title Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street, originally starring Len Cariou as Sweeney Todd and Angela Lansbury as Mrs. Lovett. In 1982, the musical was televised on The Entertainment Channel, starring Lansbury and George Hearn, and directed by Terry Hughes and Harold Prince.
* In 1998, Ben Kingsley and Joanna Lumley starred in the John Schlesinger-directed The Tale of Sweeney Todd, a television movie commissioned by British Sky Broadcasting for which Kingsley received a Screen Actors Guild Best Actor nomination.
* In 2005, the Broadway Revival Cast made their recording of the show by Sondheim. It was a special redoing of the musical, re-scored specifically for a small orchestra to be played by the actors themselves. The cast consisted of John Arbo (Jonas Fogg; bass player), Donna Lynne Champlin (Pirelli; piano, accordion, flute), Alexander Gemignani (The Beadle; piano, trumpet), Mark Jacoby (Judge Turpin; trumpet, percussion), Diana DiMarzio (Beggar Woman/Lucy Barker; clarinet), Benjamin Magnuson (Anthony Hope; cello, piano), Lauren Molina (Johanna Barker; cello), Manoel Felciano (Tobias; violin, clarinet, piano)), Patti LuPone (Mrs. Lovett; tuba, percussion), and Michael Cerveris (Sweeney Todd; guitar). Cerveris, LuPone, and Felciano were all nominated for Tony Awards; the show itself was nominated at the Tonys for Best Revival and won Best Direction and Best Orchestration.
* A BBC television drama version with a screenplay written by Joshua St Johnston and starring Ray Winstone and Essie Davis was broadcast on BBC One on 3 January 2006.
* Tim Burton directed a film adaptation of Sondheim's musical starring Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd, Helena Bonham Carter as Mrs. Lovett, Alan Rickman as Judge Turpin, and Ed Sanders as Tobias. The cast also included Sacha Baron Cohen and Timothy Spall. It opened in US theaters on 21 December 2007 and in the UK on 25 January 2008. The film received two Golden Globe Awards - one for Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical (Johnny Depp), and one for Best Picture, Comedy or Musical. The film was also nominated for three Academy Awards, winning for Art Direction.How many versions/remakes of ';Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street'; are there?

I decided on barber and morris for my rbs, which wr?
im down to r.white or toomer, right now im going with toomer, thanksI decided on barber and morris for my rbs, which wr?
toomer will disappoint, he may one or two good weeks, but that is it, he is old and people just don't get better with age after a certain point
white at least has youth and a less talented team to look for him
toomer has to compete with shockey and burressI decided on barber and morris for my rbs, which wr?
White. He's been playing pretty well of late and while dependable Toomer. I haven't seen him really do all that much recently.

How much does a haicut cost at syndicate barber shop in long beach . . for a girl?
Same as a guys, $20.
I used to get my hair cut there all the time, but the guys that could/would cut womens hair kept leaving or they worked odd hours for my schedule. No matter who cut my hair it was always neat, clean and very feminine.

Who has a better day ronde or tiki barber?
I THINK RONDE!Who has a better day ronde or tiki barber?
Let's see:
Tiki: 144 @ 27 (4.2ypr)
32rec yd @4 (8ypc)
0TD
1 lost fumble
Ronde: 6 tackles, a FF, 2 INT for 113yds and 2 TD off of McNabb one of the better QBs in the league
I'd have to say Ronde for sure. People who say Tiki are bias Giants fans.
Come on, what does the Buc's rush defense have to do with anything? If anything that means they wouldn't have seen the pass as much because they'd be getting ran over --which means Ronde's have less oportunities to pick the ball.
And what the hell does the Giants winning by a larger margin have to do with anything? That just shows that Ronde carried the Bucs because the offense blew.
Seriously people.Who has a better day ronde or tiki barber?
I personally think they are both good.
tiki
First O f All they play 2 different positions. Thats like saying who is having a better day Peyton Manning or Marvin Harrison. But im a defensive fan so I say Ronde because he makes an impact on defense. And the Bucs have a better season right now.
Tiki. Look at the Giants. When they played on MNF against the Cowboys, Tiki racked up 114 yds on 27 att. Sure its not good, but Tampa Bay won by a field goal. That shows it was an offensive game. So Tiki is better.
Tiki, hes a rb and therefore the man

You THINK its Ronde?
I KNOW its gonna be Tiki.
Bucs are the second worst rush defense team in the league!

I am about to open a progressive, dynamic barber shop. I would like to display local artists from my community
This is a *great* idea - the arts are expanding out of galleries and museums into coffee shops, salons, and tons of other places.
Something to keep in mind - artists will respond more to a ';professional'; display, even if the location itself is progressive and forward-thinking. You need to have good lighting, safe and reliable hanging and display, and safety for the pieces - don't let anyone touch the works unless the artists specifically tell you that is what they want.
If possible, maybe you should consider having a local student (say, from a museum studies or curatorial program) oversee the hanging and installation of the art. They may be willing to volunteer their time in order to get something to add to their resume.
As far as contacting artists, consider local students or independent artists first. More ';established'; artists will be concerned with insurance, copyright issues, etc. So start small. If it gets bigger, keep these issues in mind. Many larger metropolitan areas have non-profit free legal centers for the arts communities. But this is all down-the-line concerns.
Best of luck!I am about to open a progressive, dynamic barber shop. I would like to display local artists from my community
Contact the nearest college fine arts department. Students love the opportunity to display their work, and it encourages them to keep at it. You'll get some really great works from them too.I am about to open a progressive, dynamic barber shop. I would like to display local artists from my community
Bravo!! Congratulations for helping artists in your community. Wished more businesses did the same. Try contacting art clubs, community art associations even libraries asking for artist to submit colored photos of some
of their work. Study these to find the best for your barber shop interior, and pick a small amount to start with for your exhibit. Good luck and let us all know how it all comes out.

Do you like Sweeney Todd:The Demon Barber of Fleet Street?
I just wanted to see how many other people are obsessed...Do you like Sweeney Todd:The Demon Barber of Fleet Street?
Obsessed with the musical (it's an absolute masterpiece) but not so fond of the film. Too much of Sondheim's wonderful score was cut out, and while the cinematography was absolutely stunning, I just felt that they could have been more faithful to the original musical.Do you like Sweeney Todd:The Demon Barber of Fleet Street?
Do you mean the play or the movie? I saw the movie and really liked it, though I wasn't familiar with the play beforehand. I thought Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman both did amazing jobs with their roles, since that was a departure from their usual type of roles. I would not say I was obsessed.
Maybe not obsessed but i did enjoy it. I can't exactly say that I am one for blood and gore (though the blood looked like dyed water), but the story is great. I felt really sorry for him when he found out that he had killed his own wife.Very sad.
Who could possibly love such an evil character?
I do I love him! I feel so bad for him though! Imagine how wretched he must feel killing his wife and nearly killing his daughter!
I really love his charachter. I've always been into the tortured soul thing though...
love it so much! the ending is just painful..so sad.
