So I’ve been reading a lot of reviews on the revival, and I almost feel like I can’t comment on anything until I actually see what they’re talking about. BUT

Consensus on Groban seems to be that although his voice is flawless as expected, he’s just not scary. Some reviewers seem to care about this more than others.

And I was thinking, I can’t actually recall any Sweeneys whom I’ve found scary? There have been Judge Turpins who have scared me and even some Mrs. Lovetts, but not really Sweeney...during Epiphany I’m typically just laughing at his melodramatic ass.

Anyone have a Sweeney who scared them?

#i wonder if the reviews would be any different if josh groban was an unknown #because everyone KNOWS he's a nice guy ya know?#but maybe they're just being honest #and if he just can't pull off the melodrama that's another issue i guess #also one reviews said that he just blends into the crowd in group scenes #isn't he SUPPOSED to blend into the crowd?#like he's an everyman whom no one would suspect?#maybe i'm biased towards groban idk #whatever my point still stands #i have never found sweeney the character scary #sweeney todd #sweeney todd revival
