The Tony Award-winning tale of love, murder, and revenge specially adapted for and performed by teen actors of The Academy at MTWichita. This School Edition modifies the story to be suitable for high schoolers while keeping the dark wit of the original.
The story follows Sweeney Todd, an exiled barber who returns to 19th-century London seeking vengeance against the judge who framed him. He teams up with Mrs. Lovett, the owner of a failing pie shop. Soon, Todd’s quest for revenge inspires a secret ingredient for her meat pies that has Londoners lining up for more.”

Art is not only for Art Museums. If a picture is worth a thousand words, it stands to reason that art can tell us a lot about the times and place where it was produced. Local history museums exist to explore time and place.

Featuring works from C.A. Seward, John Noble, Edmund Davison, Birger Sandzen, Bruce McGrew, and more!

On view on the Historical Museum's 3rd Floor, throughout 2026 as part of the ongoing Lois Kay Walls visual art exhibition series produced by the Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum.

Be the first to visit this new exhibition during the First Friday opening on April 3, 2026.
