Little Shop of Horrors

From songwriters Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, the genius duo behind Aladdin, The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast, comes the doo-wop R&B sensation Little Shop of Horrors. Join us on Skid Row as meek and mild Seymour Krelborn seeks out a living at the failing Mushnik’s Flower Shop. Until one day, he discovers a strange and unusual plant he names Audrey II – one that feeds on human blood. Seymour becomes caught up in a wild scheme of trying to acquire fresh blood for his carnivorous plant –all while attempting to save the love of his life from her evil dentist boyfriend. Little Shop of Horrors is a wild ride filled with some of the catchiest songs including “Suddenly Seymour” and “Suppertime.” But remember…DON’T FEED THE PLANTS! This show is at the Paramount Theater and includes lunch, show and transportation. (ER)
