There's a new breed of plant in town - foul-mouthed... R&B-singing... carnivorous. And if Seymour doesn't stop "Audrey II," it just might take over the world! Don't miss a fresh, new vision of this ridiculous, beloved musical, from the Associate Choreographer of Broadway's "Hamilton." You'll laugh. You'll scream. You'll give up gardening for good. "Little Shop of Horrors" is rated PG-13 for adult situations and violence.
"Little Shop of Horrors" features a book and lyrics by Howard Ashman and music by Alan Menken. The musical is based on the film by Roger Corman, which featured a screenplay by Charles Griffith.
The production is sponsored by Wright Lindsey Jennings, with Cranford Co. and Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort.
