Following the sell out success of Into The Woods in 2011, New Street Theatre and Lakeside present
Little Shop of Horrors
Directed by Martin Berry
A man eating plant. A hapless hero.
A beautiful maiden. A sadistic dentist.
What could possibly go wrong?
When Skid Row florist Seymour buys a strange and interesting plant, little does he know that it can talk and that it feeds on blood. Seymour names the plant Audrey Two to impress his beautiful co-worker Audrey, but she is busy fending off the attentions of her sadistic dentist boyfriend. Meanwhile Audrey Two has plans far greater and more terrifying than Seymour can possibly imagine.
Written by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, this enormously popular musical is a hilarious pastiche of musical theatre and 1960’s style which has been seen by millions of people around the world.
Brought to you by the team behind the 2011 sell-out production of Into The Woods (described by reviewers as ‘wonderful’, ‘amazing’, ‘outstanding’ and ‘brilliant’), this is a rare chance to catch this timeless show and see what all the fuss is about.
Strictly limited run.
Contains mild peril!
