Kristen Blodgette has joined the Sweeney Todd company, serving as conductor beginning this past weekend. Josh Groban took to Instagram to share the good news.

"I'm overjoyed to welcome my friend and colleague of many years [Kristen Blodgette] to [Sweeney Todd]," he writes. "She’s a legend and the kindest soul you’ll ever meet and it’s such a thrill to perform with her at the helm conducting this score for the first time. She crushed it. Of course she did."
