Little Shop of Horrors Auditions!

Newman College Arts

Newman College Senior Production 2021

Coming soon to Newman College Marist Auditorium …

A deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, Little Shop Of Horrors.  This musical has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for over 30 years. One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows, Little Shop Of Horrors the charmingly tongue in cheek comedy has been produced worldwide to incredible success.

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.

The meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant he names “Audrey II” – after his co-worker crush. This cheeky, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it, BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of this world origins and intent towards global domination!
