About Little Shop of Horrors

The Little Shop of Horrors is about a young orphan with few friends who gets a new job in an old flower shop on Skid Row. This uproarious theatre production tells the typical tale of the nerdy boy falling for the beautiful assistant named Audrey. Except in this play the main character befriends a talking, human eating plant named Audrey II. The play continues with a twisted plot of the talking plant coercing the boy, Seymour, to complete dangerous and deadly tasks in the plants effort to take over the world.

The Venus fly trap, Audrey II, was created by a Sesame Street muppeteer which gave this talking, blood eating plant better high tech ability then ever before. The little shop of horrors recently added the Dirty Pop star of boy band group NSync, Joey Fatone, to play Seymour in the Little Shop of Horrors on Broadway. In August 2004, a new US tour started around the same time that the Broadway production was closing staring Anthony Rapp as Seymour. This tour ended in Columbus Ohio in April 2006. So although The Little Shop of Horrors is not currently running, keep on the look out for theatre tickets for this production, and who knows the next star that will take on the nerdy role of Seymour.
