Classic Little Shop reopens with new horrors

A NEW and exciting production of spoof musical Little Shop Of Horrors opens at The REP in Birmingham this autumn.

The show is directed by New Wolsey Theatre's artistic director, Peter Rowe, who will be making his directorial debut at The REP.

Peter Rowe directed the New Wolsey's 2008 production of Little Shop Of Horrors and is back working alongside performers James Haggie and Shirley Darroch, who reprise their 2008 roles of Seymour and Audrey for this show.

Little Shop Of Horrors follows down-on-his-luck Seymour Krelborn, who stumbles upon a strange plant that could change his luck forever.

An overnight success, the newly-christened Audrey II offers Seymour a ticket out of Skid Row and perhaps even a chance of a date with the real-life Audrey.

As Audrey II grows to monstrous proportions and develops a bloodthirsty appetite, Seymour gives in to her ferocious demands.
