This deviously delicious sci-fi musical comedy has been devouring the hearts of theatre goers for over 40 years.
Little Shop of Horrors follows Seymour Krelborn, a meek flower shop assistant who discovers a strange and otherwordly plant he names “Audrey II,” after his longtime coworker crush. But Audrey II isn’t your average houseplant—it’s a bloodthirsty, R&B-singing carnivore with dreams of world domination. Throw in a sadistic dentist, a hard-to-please boss, and a chorus of all-knowing skid row onlookers and you’ll see why audiences across the globe can’t resist Howard Ashman and Alan Menken’s campy, creepy, and outrageously fun show. This cult classic not to be missed!
