Little Shop of Horrors

March 2027

Little Shop of Horrors follows Seymour Krelborn, a timid and down-on-his-luck floral assistant working in a struggling flower shop on Skid Row. Hoping to turn his life around, Seymour discovers a strange and unusual plant and names it Audrey II after his coworker and longtime crush, Audrey.

As the mysterious plant begins to attract customers and bring sudden success to the failing flower shop, Seymour quickly realizes that Audrey II has a horrifying secret — it feeds on human blood.

Blending rock-and-roll, comedy, horror, and romance, Little Shop of Horrors has become a cult-classic musical beloved for its unforgettable music, eccentric characters, and larger-than-life storytelling. Audiences who enjoy stories like Beetlejuice, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Ghostbusters will love the humor, chaos, and theatrical fun of this wildly entertaining production.
