Overview
Every love story needs a little fertiliser
The cult Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical Little Shop of Horrors is back – bigger, bolder, and hungrier than ever!
Step inside Mushnik’s flower shop on Skid Row, in this black comedy musical, where down-on-his-luck Seymour discovers a strange and unusual plant with a taste for more than just plant food. Meet Audrey II – the foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore with a killer personality that’s ready to take over the stage (and the world).
Featuring irresistible hits like “Suddenly Seymour”, “Feed Me (Git It)” and “Dentist!”, this gleefully gory musical blends 60s pop, doo-wop and rock ‘n’ roll with outrageous comedy, camp charm and jaw-dropping puppetry.
Directed by Alister Smith (Bring It On, Cruel Intentions, The Wedding Singer) with music supervision by David Young (Frozen), musical direction by Heidi Loveland (Carrie: The Musical), set design by Penny Challen and choreography by Dan Venz, this revival promises everything fans love about Little Shop of Horrors – deranged dentists, larger-than-life plants and an unforgettable night of musical mayhem.
Don’t miss the chance to experience this new version of a smash-hit musical, up close in the intimacy of QPAC’s Cremorne Theatre this summer.
