Little Shop of Horrors
Little Shop of Horrors
By composer Alan Menken and writer Howard Ashman
A rockin’ musical comedy spoof of 1950s sci-fi horror films, Little Shop of Horrors follows the misadventures of Seymour, a down-and-out floral assistant who longs to get the girl of his dreams and escape life on skid row. When he discovers an exotic plant with a mysterious craving for fresh blood, he becomes an overnight sensation. Soon “Audrey II” grows into an ill-tempered, R&B-singing carnivore who offers him fame and fortune in exchange for feeding its growing appetite. Charming, tuneful and hilariously tongue-in-cheek, Little Shop of Horrors is irresistible and never fails to entertain; one of the longest-running off-Broadway shows of all time. A musical theater staple that has grown to cult status, Little Shop of Horrors is consistently amusing and churns with non-stop musical momentum. Don’t Miss It! This show contains some mild crude language.
The original Off-Broadway production of Little Shop won the coveted Drama Desk Award for Best Musical as well as the Drama Critics Circle and Outer Critics Circle Awards. The 2003 triumphant Broadway revival was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Revival.
