About the Show: A quirky blend of comedy, horror, and rock ‘n’ roll, Little Shop of Horrors has delighted audiences for decades with its darkly funny take on ambition, love, and the dangers of unchecked desire. The story follows Seymour, a meek flower shop assistant who discovers a mysterious new plant with an unusual appetite. As the plant—dubbed Audrey II—grows, so does Seymour’s fortune, but he soon learns that fame and success come at a terrible cost.
Set against a doo-wop and Motown-inspired score by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, the show brims with catchy songs like “Skid Row,” “Somewhere That’s Green,” and the show-stopping “Suddenly, Seymour.” With its offbeat humor, memorable characters, and a man-eating plant unlike anything seen on stage, Little Shop of Horrors is both a riotous comedy and a cautionary tale.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering it for the first time, Little Shop of Horrors offers an unforgettable evening of thrills, laughter, and toe-tapping music. Audiences will leave humming the tunes—and maybe casting a wary eye at their houseplants.
