If you are one of the few who are unfamiliar with Little Shop of Horrors, here is what ots all about...
A meek and down on his luck floral assistant, Seymour Krelborn, stumbles across a new breed of plant he names “Audrey II” — after his co-worker crush. Seymour’s pining for the beautiful Audrey goes unnoticed while she suffers at the hands of a sadistic dentist boyfriend. Meanwhile, the foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore quickly becomes the shop’s main attraction and promises unending fame and fortune as long as Seymour keeps feeding it, BLOOD.
Once attaining the interest of his beautiful co-worker and the admiration of his boss, and not having enough blood of his own, he is powerless to stop looking for new sources of blood. Just when it’s too late, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s extra-terrestrial origins and the true drive for world-domination.
Rated PG-13. This show contains mild language and dark thematic elements.
