A deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, Little
Shop of Horrors has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for well over 30
years. The meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new
breed of plant he names “Audrey II” – after his coworker crush. 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,
Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of the world origins and intent towards
global domination! Howard Ashman and Alan Menken are the creative geniuses
behind what has become one of the most popular shows across the globe!

   -

   *Seymour Krelborn – *(Tenor) An insecure, put-upon florist’s clerk and
   eventual hero. He is a genuine, well-meaning man who is taken for granted
   because of his clumsy ways and poor social skills.
   -

   *Audrey – *(High Soprano with bottom notes) Bleached-blond,
   Billie-Dawn-like, secret love of Seymour’s life. She has poor self-worth
   and education, but incredibly good looks and a sweet and vulnerable
   demeanor.
   -

   *Mr. Mushnik – *(Baritone) The seasoned owner of the failing East Side
   flower shop and Seymour’s nosy boss. He is profit-driven, greedy, and
   manipulative.
   -

   *Orin Scrivello *– (Baritone with tenor qualities) An egotistical
   dentist with a passion for leather and sadistic tendencies. Audrey’s
   abusive boyfriend, who is targeted by Seymour.
   -

   *Voice Of The Plant *– (Belt with some top notes) The voice is that of a
   conniving, street-smart ‘villain.’ *Gender: Male OR Female*
   -

   *Crystal, Ronnette, and Chiffon – *(Sop, Alto, and low notes) Street
   urchins, acting as the occasional Greek Chorus. Young, hip, and smart,
   these girls are the only ones who have a grip on reality. *Gender: Male
   OR Female*
   -

   *Ensemble – *Various male and female voices will be used to play roles
   as reporters, shop customers and Skid Row residents.
