Returning to London after wrongful imprisonment, a barber hell-bent on revenge sets out to enact his own justice with a clean-cut shave.

DULOG presents the legendary tale of ‘Sweeney Todd’, a grippingly gothic Sondheim musical that’ll tip you to the edge of your seat. Upon returning to London fifteen years after his wrongful exile, the reinvented Sweeney Todd takes up his old barber shop above Mrs Lovett’s pie shop. Faced with revelations of his past, the two work together to add a deadly secret ingredient to her pies.

Join Durham University Choral Society for their inaugural performance of the season, bringing the reverence of Vaughan Williams' "Dona Nobis Pacem" and the radiance of Poulenc's "Gloria" to the stage of Newcastle Cathedral alongside a 60-piece orchestra.

'Durham University Choral Society, described as possessing "a warm and finely balanced" sound (The Guardian, 2024), join forces with the players of Durham University's leading Orchestras to bring a vibrant programme of choral and symphonic music to Newcastle Cathedral.

Conducted by Tim Burke (Chorus Director for Royal Northern Sinfonia Chorus and Musical Director of Tête à Tête Opera), our evening of music begins with the rousing "Gloria" by Francis Poulenc, a radiant work by the French 20th century composer that spreads joyous praise with a modern twist.  Our second half takes the audience on an extended journey influenced by the First World War from Vaughan Williams' perspective, with a choral-symphonic work entitled "Dona Nobis Pacem" (give us peace).  With introspective slower movements and the haunting fanfares of "Beat! Beat! Drums" Williams brings these tragic memories to life and depicts the light of peace emerging through the darkness.

With an evening of joyous, emotionally resonant music in the beautiful surroundings of Newcastle Cathedral, this event is not one to miss.
