Meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant that he names Audrey II in honour of his co-worker crush. But the foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises fame and fortune to the down-and-out Krelborn if he keeps feeding it blood. Then he discovers Audrey II’s out-of-this-world origins and plans on global domination.
A hit as a Hollywood movie and a Broadway musical, this tongue-in-cheek sci-fi comedy is packed with great songs and has been a favourite with theatre goers for more than 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 is an amateur production, presented by Southend Operatic & Dramatic Society.
