The 1979 version of Sweeney Todd, featuring 16 pages of black and white photos from the stage performance (including Angela Lansbury as Mrs. Lovett and Victor Garber as Anthony). Contains full lyrics to each of the songs, does NOT contain the musical score.

Altogether a satisfying read, both intruiging and darkly amusing. I'd definately recommend it to anyone who's interested in the film version.
