Description
As a general rule, we wouldn't recommend biting into one of Mrs. Lovett's meat pies, but that holds especially true for this one. Sweeney Todd opened at the Uris Theatre (now known as the Gershwin Theatre) on March 1, 1979, with Len Cariou in the title role and Angela Lansbury as the conniving Mrs. Lovett. This solid silver meat pie was created by Lansbury in clay, then cast in silver as an opening night gift for Victor Garber, who originated the role of the lovestruck Anthony Hope. Weighing in at about just under five pounds, this extremely rare pie and one-of-a-kind Broadway collector's item may not be one of "The Worst Pies in London" after all.
