Maidenhead Operatic Society: Sweeney Todd - The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Maidenhead Operatic Society presents
Stephen Sondheim’s iconic award winning musical, which is in turn both comic and chilling.
Bloodthirsty barber Sweeney Todd has sworn revenge on the judge who destroyed his life. He now holds Todd’s beautiful daughter prisoner. Mrs Lovett needs to save her failing pie-shop. Together they hatch a murderous plan which could solve both problems…
Set in the backstreets of Victorian London, this dark and blood-soaked tale is widely regarded as having Sondheim’s finest score.
Sweeney Todd depicts scenes of a sensitive and violent nature. This is an amateur production.

Puffling Percy
Percy is a puffling who loves his burrow a little too much.
Map and Pap want him to venture outside and flap his wings, but Percy has other ideas. What the puffling doesn’t realise, however, is that his entire flock are about to migrate south for the winter. If he doesn’t learn to fly, he will be left behind and his life will be in mortal danger!
Along comes a fearless field-mouse called Shrimp, whose brimming self-confidence makes Percy feel braver. Together, the unlikely pals take off on a perilous adventure that requires every ounce of courage they’ve got. How will he find his way back home? Will Percy ever see his Map and Pap again?
An uplifting children’s show about friendship, overcoming self-doubt and trusting your own instincts. With original music and songs by Harriette Ashcroft (Mrs H and the Singalong Band), magical puppetry and a heart warming story, Puffling Percy is bound to shake you by your tail-feathers and lift you up, up & away!

Written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, this musical for the ages sees the six queens - Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Catherine Parr - take back the microphone through a series of infectious, empowering performances. The queens are accompanied by the sensational on-stage band, the Ladies in Waiting.
