Video: Ellen Greene Unpacks 40 Years of Audrey and LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS
Greene will host a 40th Anniversary Screening of Little Shop of Horrors at Patchogue Theatre.
Broadway icon Ellen Greene joins The Roundtable with Robert Bannon for a rare and unforgettable conversation celebrating 40 years of Little Shop of Horrors. As she travels across the country meeting fans and revisiting one of the most beloved musicals of all time, Ellen looks back on the role that made theatre history.
How did she discover Audrey? What inspired her unforgettable voice, mannerisms, and heart? What was it like collaborating with legendary creatives Howard Ashman, Alan Menken, Frank Oz, Jim Henson, and the incredible team that brought Little Shop from a tiny stage musical to an enduring cultural phenomenon?
Ellen shares stories from the rehearsal room, reflects on the lasting impact of Audrey, and opens up about why this character continues to resonate with audiences four decades later. It's an intimate look at the creation of one of musical theatre's most iconic performances from the woman who originated it.
I was also thrilled to tell Ellen that I'll be moderating one of the stops on her anniversary tour, and I truly can't wait to celebrate this remarkable legacy with audiences in person. It was a full-circle moment for this theatre fan and one I'll never forget.
Don't miss this BroadwayWorld exclusive featuring one of the true legends of the American theatre. Whether you've loved Little Shop of Horrors for 40 years or you're discovering it for the first time, this is a conversation you'll want to experience.
