Muppets Sweeney Todd Cast
This idea has been rotting my brain for so long I thought I’d put it together and share some ideas for the production:
• So I wanted Kermit to be in this somewhere so I thought a running gag could be that Mrs.Lovett’s husband is still alive but Piggy keeps slamming doors on him, and trying to hide him. (Kermit welcomes Sweeney into the store, Piggy shoves him under the counter “A customer!!” like nothing happened)
• Mrs. Mooney (Helena) could walk by with 3 muppet cats sticking out of pies.
• Beaker as Lucy, I swear. In the flash backs, Beaker’s hair isn’t sticking up or he has a wig or something, but because he took poison, his hair sticks up, and Sweeney doesn’t recognize him because of it.
• Most of Sweeney’s victims could be the muppet vegetables, that he “peels” and secretly CHOPS. Or we could go a step further and have his victims be Muppet pigs (piggy cannibalism).
• I was thinking Sam Eagle for Turpin, but ultimately Deadly is the better choice, so I think it’d be funny if Sam was also a judge, disapproves of Turpin, and Sweeney says that he wants to shave the judge and Sam is like “I’M A JUDGE” “Not you!”
• Fozzy is Mrs. Lovett’s customer and THINK OF THE PUNS!!!!
• Joanna is played by Camilla, so when the Judge sends her to the Asylum, it’s just a chicken coop, and the chickens attack Sweetums (the Asylum Owner).
• ALSO PRETTY WOMEN BEING CHANGED TO PRETTY CHICKEN(S) I WOULD DIE.
