Little Shop of Horrors
Overview
Northern Stage and Derby Theatre present
LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS
A cult classic. A killer soundtrack. A comedy to die for.
Northern Stage and Derby Theatre present a dazzling production of the cult classic, Little Shop of Horrors – the deliciously dark and delightfully tongue-in-cheek musical that’s charmed audiences for over 40 years.
With music by Alan Menken (Disney’s The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast) and book and lyrics by Howard Ashman (also Disney’s The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast), Little Shop of Horrors is a madcap mash-up of sci-fi, Motown and B-movie horror. Meet Seymour Krelborn, a down-on-his-luck flower shop assistant who stumbles upon a strange and exotic plant with a sinister secret: it thrives on human blood. As the plant’s appetite grows, so does Seymour’s fame and fortune – but at what cost?
Packed with unforgettable songs like Skid Row (Downtown), Suddenly Seymour, and
Feed Me (Git It), this outrageous musical promises killer tunes, unexpected laughs and larger-than-life characters. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or a first-time visitor to Skid Row, don’t miss your chance to experience this riotous theatrical treat.
Book and lyrics by Howard Ashman
Music by Alan Menken
Based on the film by Roger Corman
Screenplay by Charles Griffith
