I had a dream that Sweeney Todd was being performed at my elementary school. Different men other than the movie actors were playing the roles of Sweeney, Judge Turpin and the Beadle, but Mrs. Lovett was still being played by Helena Bonham Carter. Anyway, Sweeney went around slitting the throats of the kids in the audience, and they were drinking their own blood. However, they were fine throughout the rest of the dream, as if it had never happened. As Mrs. Lovett was saying her lines, I was saying them along with her because I knew them by heart.
Then there was an intermission, and I was to go up on stage and perform a skit with the actors. In the skit, Sweeney was working in the produce department of a grocery store, and Judge Turpin was his boss coming to inspect his work.
I was Sweeney's assistant. I pulled a sign out of a bag that was supposed to be a price tag, but instead it said something to the effect of "all of this merchandise is stolen". The audience laughed. Sweeney told me to hide the sign.
Then Turpin came for his inspection. He could tell I was hiding the sign behind my back, and he kept trying to look but I wouldn't let him. A chase ensued. I ran around and purposely tripped and stumbled so the audience would laugh, and they did. When the intermission ended, the audience complimented me on how funny I was.
