Soundcheck
Sweeney Todd
Thursday, April 20, 2006
Tony Award winner Patti LuPone joins us to talk about her role in the Broadway revival of Sondheim's "Sweeney Todd." The production finds her singing -- and playing the tuba. Also: Music boxes are typically small, delicate items, but imagine creating one large enough to walk through. We hear about a sound installation in Queens known as Fluxbox. And a look at the Dance Theatre Workshop's new production, "Sourcing Stravinsky," which features six different choreographer's takes on the composer.
