Fall 2027 | Mainstage Production
A nerdy florist’s assistant, a helpless crush, and a bloodthirsty plant from outer space come together in this delightfully twisted, sci-fi musical comedy. When Seymour discovers a strange and unusual exotic vine, he accidentally stumbles into fame, fortune, and a Faustian bargain with a killer appetite. Featuring a hilarious, R&B-singing villain and a timelessly catchy 1960s rock-and-roll score, it’s a deliciously dark story about what happens when you feed your deepest desires.

A deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, Little Shop Of Horrors has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for over 30 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.
The meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant he names “Audrey II” – after his coworker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it, BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of this world origins and intent towards global domination!
One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows, Little Shop Of Horrors, the charmingly tongue-in-cheek comedy has been produced worldwide to incredible success with technical aspects running the gamut from Broadway to PTA budgets.
