Opening: Little Shop Of Horrors

The Menier Chocolate Factory’s West End transfer of sci-fi musical spoof Little Shop of Horrors is visiting Manchester next week as part of its UK tour.

The cast is led by Claire Buckfield, Alex Ferns, Sylvester McCoy and Damian Humbley.

Nerdy orphan Seymour works in Mr Mushnik’s Skid Row florist shop, along with girl of his dreams Audrey, who is dating Scrivello. After a solar eclipse, Seymour discovers a peculiar plant with a bloodthirsty appetite, which he names Audrey II. As his infatuation with the real Audrey grows, so does the plant.

Alan Menken and Howard Ashman’s musical is loosely based on Roger Corman’s popular low-budget 1960 film. Following its Christmas season at the Southwark-based Chocolate Factory, for which it won this year’s Whatonstage.com for Best Off-West End Production, the Menier revival of Little Shop, directed by Matthew White and designed by David Farley, opened in the West End on 12 March, 2007.

Little Shop Of Horrors runs at the Opera House from Mon 27th April, 2009 for one week.
