“Little Shop of Horrors” by Cornerstone University Theatre

Little Shop of HorrorsA down-and-out floral assistant becomes an overnight sensation when he discovers an exotic plant with a mysterious craving for fresh blood.

Soon, “Audrey II” grows into an ill-tempered, R&B-singing carnivore who offers Seymour fame and fortune in exchange for feeding the plant’s growing appetite, finally revealing itself to be an alien creature poised for global domination!

One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows of all time, this affectionate spoof of the 1950s sci-fi movies has become a household name, thanks to a highly successful film version and a score by the songwriting team of Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, who redefined the animated musical film with Disney’s The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin. Audiences may also be familiar with the 1986 film version directed by Frank Oz. Charming, tuneful and hilarious, with tongue firmly planted in cheek, Little Shop of Horrors will not fail to keep you entertained!
