voice of Audrey II, Michelle Dolciato as the plant, Holly Facer, Allison

One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows of all time, this affectionate
spoof of 1950s sci-fi movies has become a household name, thanks to a highly
successful film version and a score by the songwriting team of Howard Ashman
<http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000188>  and Alan Menken
<http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000188> , who redefined the
animated musical film with Disney's The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast
and Aladdin. Of course quite different from those musicals, "Little Shop of
Horrors" tells of a down and out floral assistant who becomes an overnight
sensation when he discovers an exotic plant with a mysterious craving. Will
Seymour get the girl and tame the plant? Charming, tuneful and hilarious,
with tongue firmly planted in cheek ,"Little Shop of Horrors" never fails to
entertain. Includes the songs "Skid Row," "Somewhere That's Green" and
"Suddenly Seymour." Winner of New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best
Musical, Drama Desk Award for Best Musical and the Outer Critics Circle
Award!
