Written
and directed by award-winning documentary film maker Francesca Joseph,
the critically acclaimed Tomorrow La Scala! stars Jessica Stevenson
as the director of an opera company which is putting on a performance
of Steven Sondheim's Sweeney Todd in a maximum security prison using
lifers as the chorus.
Tomorrow
La Scala!, which also stars Samantha Spiro, Shaun Dingwall and Daniel
Evans, made its debut with a successful screening at the Cannes
film festival in 2002 before being shown on 91热爆 TWO.

themselves into feature film making.

Ruth Caleb for 91热爆 Films.
At
the awards ceremony on Wednesday 5 March 2003, the 91热爆 also won
