Told almost entirely in song, the show follows their progression from England to America, around the vaudeville circuit and to Hollywood on the eve of their appearance in the 1932 movie Freaks.<br style=""><br style="">With a completely reworked plot and new songs like "VERY WELL CONNECTED", "ALL IN THE MIND", and "THE GREAT WEDDING SHOW", the 2014 revival delves deeper into the back-story of the Hilton twins. With the implementation of the twins' relationship with Harry Houdini and of a proposed separation surgery, the new book fleshes out characters and situations that endow the songs with more sophistication and truth.</span></div></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;" mce_style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></div></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt;"> </div></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: verdana, geneva; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size:12pt;;"><b><br></b></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: verdana, geneva; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size:12pt;;"><div><b><span mce_style="font-size: 14pt;" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span mce_style="font-size: 24pt;" style="font-size: 24pt;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;" mce_style="font-size: 18pt;">Tickets: $18</span></span></span></b></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva;"><i>Get your tickets NOW!</i></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva;"><font face="Times New Roman"><br></font></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><span mce_style="font-size: 14pt;">To purchase tickets for this show <a href="http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/sweeney-todd-tickets/http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/sideshow-tickets/" title="CLICK HERE" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><span mce_style="font-size: 14pt;"><br></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><span mce_style="font-size: 14pt;"><font face="verdana, geneva">To view a poster for the show <a href="http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/sideshow/" title="CLICK HERE" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a></font></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><br></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><font face="verdana, geneva">To see a CAST & STAFF list for this production <a href="http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/side-show-cast/" title="CLICK HERE" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a></font></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><font face="verdana, geneva"><br></font></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><font face="verdana, geneva">To seem images from the show <a href="http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/2018-season-photos/side-show/" mce_href="http://www.blankcanvastheatre.com/2018-season-photos/side-show/" title="CLICK HERE" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a></font></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;font-family: verdana, geneva;"><br></div></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt;"> </div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="font-family: verdana, geneva; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 10pt;"><div><div _mce_style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; text-align: left;"><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;"><span mce_style="font-size: 18pt;"><span mce_style="font-size: 14pt;"> <b>Blank Canvas Theatre</b></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;"><span mce_style="font-size: 18pt;">(at 78th Street Studios)</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="font-size:12pt;"><span mce_style="font-size: 18pt;">1305 West 78th Street, Suite 211.
