Little Shop of Horrors
by City Theatre Company
Jul. 01 - Jul. 02
Feed the need for musical hilarity with this screamingly funny, gleefully twisted, out-of-this-world hit musical. Little Shop has devoured the hearts of theatregoers for over 40 years. Howard Ashman and Alan Menken (Disney's The Little Mermaid, Beauty and The Beast, and Aladdin) are the creative geniuses behind what has become one of the most popular shows in the world. Seymour is a nerdy floral clerk with a knack for plants, and one peculiar plant he’s tending might just be his ticket to fame, fortune - and the girl of his dreams.
There’s only one teeny, but growing, problem: This plant has an unquenchable thirst for the red stuff (type O, A, or B... he’s not picky) and Seymour ultimately discovers what this foul-mouthed, soul-singing, otherworldly carnivore is up to. Mixing Motown, B-movies, and the American Dream, Little Shop is a deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical.
