Attend the Tale of Sweenella Todd...

"Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd. He served a dark and avengeful God!
What happened then, well that's the play,and he wouldn't want us to give it away... "
Saturday night our YG had one of it's events. A large and exaggerated version of the classic game CLUE, where the church was the game board, and the youth were the players. The Leadership Core got to play the house staff, and I was more than happy to be appointed the position of Sweenella Todd, personal Hair and Complexion consultant to the murdered couple...and granddaughter of the Demon Barber himself, Sweeney Todd.
Note: Yes my real grandfather was a Barber, but he was most certainly not a demon Barber...actually he was a pastor, so...yeah. Pretty sure there was no killing going on in his shop...
I was very excited to play this role, and laughed when I found out that my murder weapon was a pair of - get this - safety scissors!!! (And, yes, I was the murderess.)
Seeing as I adore musicals, and enjoy all things pertaining to hair, it would make sense that I would have a fascination with Sweeney Todd.
For just a little taste I suggest you watch this link
I later went to bed, to tired to shower, and awoke to this....which was nearly as scary.
