Bronxville students triumphed over their lack of an auditorium and the poor weather to produce "Sweeney Todd."

Thanks to the active support of the Rev. Michael Bird, the drama department secured the use of space at Christ Church, redesigned the production, and produced an imaginative version of the musically challenging Sondheim play.

Not least of the challenges was the harsh winter, interrupting the rehearsal schedule and making it difficult to sustain momentum as the dates drew near.

In the end, the schedule was modified slightly, but the cast and crew triumphed over adversity and drew rave revues.
