'Little Shop of Horrors'

A deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, "Little Shop Of Horrors" has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for over 30 years. Howard Ashman and Alan Menken (Disney’s "The Little Mermaid," "Beauty And The Beast," and "Aladdin") are the creative geniuses behind what has become one of the most popular shows in the world.

This foul-mouthed, R&B- singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it, BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of this world origins and intent towards global domination! Related links: San Diego Musical Theatre website SDMT on Instagram SDMT on TikTok
