Kiss Me – Sweeney Todd (with Philémon Heutte)

Just like the birds she sings to, Johanna flits around trying to figure out how to escape. Will a kiss from Anthony fix anything? Philémon Heutte returns to talk with Kyle about Johanna's true motivations, and how two characters can sing at each other but not hear each other.
