Little Shop of Horrors

Tuesday 30 July – Saturday 3 August

Seymour, an orphan and a nerd, is taken in and given a job by Mr Mushnik, the owner of a rundown florist in the seedy part of town. Seymour spends his days doing menial tasks and dreaming about the shop assistant Audrey. One day he finds a very mysterious unidentified plant which he buys and calls Audrey 11. While caring for Audrey 11, Seymour discovers the plant’s rather unique appetite. The plant grows and grows, as does Seymour’s infatuation for Audrey, but who will succeed. Will Audrey 11 take over the world or will Seymour and Audrey finally defeat it?
