Josh Groban can sing anything. Josh Groban can be in any role. If you haven’t seen Sweeney Todd with Josh and Annaleigh, please, please try to see it!! He truly SLAYS the role!!!!

I have seen the “Sweeney Todd” revival twice, and am convinced the sound technicians do not even bother turning on Josh Groban’s mic for the opening line. The applause is just that thunderous and loud, which is one of the best parts of the experience. It really goes to show just how excited everyone is to see this wonderfully weird musical.

100% accurate. we saw it in September. When he pops out of the "grave" at the beginning, the roar of the crowd is deafening.

I flew from Seattle to NY to see this. There was no way I would miss seeing Josh Groban on Broadway. I missed him the first time, and was not going to do a repeat. What a treat!!! The show was wonderful, funny, surprising. All the performers were prime examples of live theater at its best. If you haven't been to a show yet - go.

Hearing his voice in person isn’t anything like hearing it recorded. It’s amazing how rich it is live! I was a fan of his before seeing Sweeney, but OMG after hearing him sing in that performance I’m obsessed with his music now!

You Raise Me Up is my favorite song (he didn't write it but his is my favorite version). And I worked security at a concert of his, and he seems like a really nice person (I didn't meet him, but I mean from hearing him talk on stage) and of course is one of the best singers in the world.

His voice is magnificent! I have several videos of that concert on my other channel, the official Andy Saenz. I wish I could fly to NYC to see him in action on Broadway! I hope he wins a Tony for his role as Sweeney Todd! He’s criminally underrated in the entertainment industry.

No Sweeney Todd I've ever seen has sported a beard. I suspect they did it to make him look older. Even though he is the right age for the character... he still reads much younger.

Josh Groban has a beard as Sweeney, because he has sported a beard for the past decade.

Josh was the one initiated the revival of ST, and since he has a beard already they let him keep it. For Good Cop they did insist he go clean shaven though,which I so appreciated!

I just went to see Josh Groban in "Sweeney Todd" on Wednesday. It was the matinee and he and Annaleigh were not there. The understudy was great though. It appears that Josh Groban was doing the "Jimmy Fallon Show" that day (was told that they had covid). If you have a chance, go see "Sweeney Todd." It is an amazing show.

No, I have all of your cds. I went to New York to see you in "Sweeney Todd" but you and Annaleigh were out that day. I'd love to see you in concert. I don't think I can go back to New York to see you in "Sweeney Todd." It's too expensive. @JoshGrobanMusic

I really wanted to see the original cast one more time (without Jordan Fisher, I'm not a fan of his anyway), but I'm so bummed that Gaten is leaving next week! The show was so good, I'm thankful that I got to at least see it once. Maybe I'll see Josh and Annaleigh one more time before they leave, although I will miss Gaten a lot. He was wonderful! As much as I love when they cast big stars in shows, it also means big prices. I remember pre-COVID wanting to see "Hamilton" and finding out that the tix cost $400 and thinking, "There's no way I can ever pay that much." Now it feels like that's just an average price, at least if you want to sit close.

I’m assuming you’re a “registered” Grobanite…I’ve been so busy listening to Sweeney Todd on Apple Music that I haven’t had one chance to do my “online registration” to get my Grobanite badge. Let’s plan on doing a meet and greet “Somewhere Over the Rainbow’” as Grobanites after you hear “Both Sides Now”. P.S. Don’t mess with “Stages”! Grobanites talk about the pedestal only.
