Little Shop of Horrors
Little Town Players' 47th season is ending with the spring rock comedy musical, Little Shop of Horrors. With music written by the smash songwriting team of Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, the story follows a hapless flower shop worker who raises a man-eating plant. The show is charmingly tongue-in-cheek and is regularly produced in theaters worldwide. In 1986, Frank Oz of Muppets fame directed the Oscar-nominated film version starring Rick Moranis with appearances by classic comedians Steve Martin, John Candy, and Bill Murray. It was a hit and continues to be a popular musical with audiences of all ages. Some of the more well-known songs include “Suddenly Seymour,” “Skid Row (Downtown),” and the hilarious “Dentist” number. This production will be directed by Matt Karriss, a man who is no stranger to playing the role of Seymour Krelborn at the professional level. His experience and leadership is sure to make this a production not to be missed.
