Ben Platt is such an amazing actor. Just compare this to his role in Dear Evan Hansen. It's absolutely different and yet he seems absolutely natural in both roles. It's so incredible.
It kind of annoys me that almost everyone here us going on about Ben and completely ignoring Uzo. Ben is an amazing person and one if my favorite actors but Uzo doesn't get enough love!
This was perfect! It's really nice to see Ben play a character like this. It's so different from his other roles. And Uzo was wonderful too. (And bonus points for Ben's hip movements ((and his ass)))
Ben: *•clears throat•* if I am playing the women come on Uzo: Oh fair enough Ben: thank you it’s one of the few things that I get Uzo: After you Ben: let’s see now... Uzo: Quite a handsome women.
:O Is that the crazy girl from OITNB? She has a really good voice. This song would've reaped a thousand laughter in an actual production. Great performance :)
Help, I am oddly turned on my Ben Platt being treated like woman and singing about eating people. He also has a cute butt and adorable, chubby cheeks. And he's just such a sweetheartUGH, I LOVE HIM!
I was today years old when I learned this existed, but 16 the first time I saw Uzo on stage at Medfield High School. I’m so damn happy she’s living her dream. Thanks from that new girl with the Jeep you introduced to everyone in the senior class, and keep slaying, girl.
Uzo is a _real_ good Sweeney. Ben nailed his part as well, of course, but oh my god I'd start saving for the ticket now if I saw some production of this with Uzo Aduba as Sweeney Todd was in the works _regardless_ of who else was on the cast!

"Playing the woman, it's one of the few things that I get, thank you."

"who wants to see evan hansen and crazy eyes sing about cannibalism" is not a sentence i thought could even exist

+Sarah Wright Same, this is amazing
I love them both doing the British accent.
it is a musical
Dear Evan Lovett, a musical about a boy with severe social anxiety so instead of talking to people he kills them and puts them in pies
LovelyChocolateChick I mean I'd pay to see that
LovelyChocolateChick Yes please 😂😂😂
LovelyChocolateChick why is this not a thing
I'd pay for that thing!
LovelyChocolateChick I would actually rather see that.
Only Ben Platt can still look adorable while singing about cannibalism
And exploiting suicides
*Angela Lansbury*
Ben Platt is cute even when he's baking humans.
Ben Platt is such an amazing actor. Just compare this to his role in Dear Evan Hansen. It's absolutely different and yet he seems absolutely natural in both roles. It's so incredible.
Ben Platt: I'M JEWISH
Me: I know
Only_Hazel we all know
BEn at 2:33 " *clears throat* Well, if I'm playing the woman, come on!" Lol
Ben is the perfect Mrs. Lovett. Someone cast him now.
I love those couple of lines where Ben just switches to full on London accent. It's bloody brilliant
@@aburijon1656 hOw CaN yA tEll?
im crying why is ben platt so perfect im crying
It kind of annoys me that almost everyone here us going on about Ben and completely ignoring Uzo. Ben is an amazing person and one if my favorite actors but Uzo doesn't get enough love!
Everyone's talking about Ben Platt, I love him but give my amazing girl Uzo Aduba some love cause she's phenomenal
This is my favorite thing ever!!! Ben looks so sassy
Ben is the cutest Lovett I'm cryin
I love them they should be in the actual cast, that would be cute and their chem is amazing.
Jonathon Lastname I mean... She would have to kill Ben which would be hear breaking
THIS IS MY FAVORITE MISCAST EVER.
At 3:52 when Ben does that one part I started wheezing
I love the little jokes Ben makes between music, they look like they are having so much
uhhh it should b illegal for ben platt move his hips like that
This was perfect! It's really nice to see Ben play a character like this. It's so different from his other roles. And Uzo was wonderful too. (And bonus points for Ben's hip movements ((and his ass)))
Uzo Adupa is an international treasure
I've recently become obsessed with Ben Platt and Sweeney Todd is my favourite musical ever so this made me so fucking happy
Everyone is talking about Ben but Uzo is a legend herself
Im a simple woman i see Ben Platt and i click
"the problem with poet is how do you know if it's deceased"
😂😂😂😂😂
ben's hip wiggle is the BEST god bless him
I love them. I love her. I love him. I love them together. Please give me more of these two being delightfully evil to a Sondheim bops.
Nice to see Evans making friends
But also murdering people in the process
Lmao sounds like evan's turned into a mess after deh
So maybe Connor Murphy didn't kill himself. Maybe Evan Hansen gave him a shave and baked him into a meet pie.
:0
Marina Lebowich 😂
I love this comment
Holy fuck.
conspiracy theory someone tell shane dawson
I'd love this to be a real cast!! love uzo aduba! xxx
i would pay money for this to be a real cast!!!
Ben: *•clears throat•* if I am playing the women come on
Uzo: Oh fair enough
Ben: thank you it’s one of the few things that I get
Uzo: After you
Ben: let’s see now...
Uzo: Quite a handsome women.
t0nyc0nde he plays a woman and Uzo is playing a man. It’s a gender bent preformance
Ava Bailey did you not watch the video? it’s a quote from the performance.
I need an ENTIRE PLAY with these two!!!!
uzo would be a great lovett too
uzo would be a great everything
HIS HIP SWAYING!!!
They look like they are having so much fun 😄 I love it
Love that Ben put in the bit about getting it on Saturdays too!
UZO SLAY
:O Is that the crazy girl from OITNB? She has a really good voice. This song would've reaped a thousand laughter in an actual production. Great performance :)
+Hezekiah Pabico She originally studied opera but moved to theater/tv when she couldn't get roles!
What's OITNB? I want to see more of her
@@realimereads2707 orange is the new black
@@ellie-ym3zo Ah, thank youbi think I recognise her now
Crazy eyes is one good actress :-)
Noelia Jaime indeed
Noelia Jaime she has a name
"Trouble is, we only get it on Sundays"
Yeah, like you.
If you don't get it, he usually only goes to go out to meet people on Sunday after his musical.
I saw the title and thought, "Of any role, I would never have imagined Ben Platt playing Sweeney Todd." And then it started and I went, "Oh, yes."
Omg Ben is too adorable XD
Ben Platt his face is just too sweet! Always!
Uzo Aduba has a great voice
Only Sondheim could write a song about how people would taste based on their professions. i love Uzo as Sweeney.
The hip sway at 1:47 KILLS ME
Thanks for pointing this out and making me melt.
Keith Abaka 😂😂😂😂 you're welcome ;)))
Bismuth as Sweeney Todd!😃😍

Respect for Uzo to perform this all with heels on.

Ben's adlibbing is off the scale good! Doubled over laughing by the end 😂😂🤣
Ben Platt; 'nuff said.
This might be my favorite thing ever
I literally love these two singing this. Love. Adore. Udo is AMAZING, and Ben is hilarious, and they both do a wonderful job.
"Who's your favorite Mrs.Lovett?"
Me: Ben Platt
THE 20 PEOPLE WHO DISLIKED- DO YOU HAVE A SOUL???!!
Crazy eyes and Evan Handson teaming up Awesome!!
I will say it again - Ben Platt is a GIFT TO THIS WORLD.
I absolutely ADORE UZO!!!!
Ben Platt is the most adorable thing in this whole world
Ben Platt gyrates his hips for 6 minutes
Also known as "Ben Platt making me gay for 6 minutes"
Every time I play this song my kitten will always watch the screen
you can really tell they were enjoying this
I was today years old when I learned this existed, but 16 the first time I saw Uzo on stage at Medfield High School. I’m so damn happy she’s living her dream. Thanks from that new girl with the Jeep you introduced to everyone in the senior class, and keep slaying, girl.
Ben's hips don't lie 😂😍
STOP I was not ready for the role reversal!! This is amazing!!!!!
it's been five years and i'm still thinking about uzo aduba's sweeney todd
2:05 "Green, yes like Kermit the Frog!"

Sweeney Todd is so amazing and this was just fabulous
I came here after the 2017 Tony's, and, HE JUST WON A FUCKING TONY MY GOD YES
as a steven universe fan watching this im just imaging Bismuth(who Uzo Aduba voices) singing this and its an amazing thing to imagine!
He finally got that harmony at the end!! Haha, this was spectacular, I could watch this for hours.
I need this song on an hour loop 👌🏻
Uzo is a _real_ good Sweeney. Ben nailed his part as well, of course, but oh my god I'd start saving for the ticket now if I saw some production of this with Uzo Aduba as Sweeney Todd was in the works _regardless_ of who else was on the cast!
this is such an odd pairing but their chemistry is so great because they're both amazing.
I listen to this everyday and nobody can stop me
BYE I LOVE THEM BOTH SO MUCH
Honestly this is the only version of this song I'll watch
I ship it!
SuperHugs4free me too!
SuperHugs4free wat? Me and Ben, I agree
Love this. Anyone want to fund this to actually happen? I'll direct.

Such Chaotic energy I love it
