The entertaining, horror-sci-fi-musical comedy featuring the creative geniuses of Ashman and Menken (Disney's The Little Mermaid, Beauty and The Beast, and Aladdin) is one of the longest running Off-Broadway shows and has entertained theatre goers for over 35 years. The charmingly tongue-in-cheek dark comedy tells the story of a timid floral assistant Seymour Krelborn who stumbles across a new breed of plant and names it after his crush. The foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune as long as it is well fed, but will Seymore realize the plant’s intent towards global domination before it is too late?
