Seymour, a hopeless floral assistant in a seedy New York neighborhood, catapults to instant fame when he finds an exotic, blood eating plant. He names the plant “Audrey II” (after Audrey, the girl at the shop whom he has long admired) and it quickly develops into a cantankerous, rude, man-eater who offers Seymour a lifetime of fame and prosperity on the condition that Seymour continue to feed the plant’s insatiable appetite. After many unfortunate calamities, Seymour eventually learns that Audrey II had only one thing in mind all along: to dominate and populate the world with its breed of carnivorous plants!
Little Shop of Horrors has been a cult classic since its debut Off-Broadway in 1982. With a lineup of energetic songs and an assortment of zany characters, this show will delight anyone with a taste for the unusual.
This production is recommended for ages 8 and older.
