Little Shop of Horrors
Book by Howard Ashman
Music & Lyrics by Alan Menken & Howard Ashman
Directed by Pasco Scarpella
Skid Row. A down-on-his-luck florist's assistant. A mysterious plant that appeared after a total eclipse of the sun. At first, it's a miracle - the strange little plant brings customers, fame, and maybe even a shot at the girl of his dreams. Then it starts asking for food. Specifically, blood. The doo-wop is infectious, the horror is campy, and somewhere underneath all the man-eating mayhem is a genuine love story. Feed the need to see this one.
