Audition notice for
Little Shop of Horrors
Book and lyrics by Howard Ashman; music by Alan Menken
Directed by: Ashley Puckett Gonzales
Music Director: Larry Miller
In this deviously delicious smash hit musical, the meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant – a singing carnivore that promises unending fame and fortune as long as Seymour keeps feeding it BLOOD! Recently revived on Broadway, the show previously ran off-Broadway for 30 years. This tongue-in-cheek comedy brings an arrangement of laughter, tears, and toe-tapping tunes.
