Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (Full Animated Musical)
TotalNerdBag for Anthony
Character Description: A young sailor who saved Mr. Sweeney Todd's life out at sea, Anthony Hope sees and falls desperately in love with a young maiden named Johanna, When threatened by Judge Turpin, whom keeps her as his ward, he schemes with Johanna to elope and sail off to see the wonders of the world together.
Voice Type: Tenor
Casting Notes: He must sound like he's in his early 20's considering Johanna is 16. We don't want the age gap to sound extremely distant, that'd be really creepy (even if the way they fell in love is somewhat questionable in the first place).
Introduce yourself! Say your name, pronouns, and voice range. If you would like to say your age you can but it’s not required.
ANTHONY: A pleasure, ma'am. Oh, Mr. Todd, I have so much to tell you. I have found the fairest and most loving maid that any man could dream of! And yet there are problems. She has a guardian so tyrannical that she is kept shut up from human eye. But now this morning this key fell from her shuttered window.[He holds up JOHANNA 's key] The surest sign that Johanna loves me and . . .
Sing Johanna and No Place Like London (only until Todd starts singing).
I don't feel like you are right for Anthony, however if you would like to be in the ensemble I would love to have you in it!
