Theatre Department Presents “Little Shop of Horrors" posted 4/6/10
Performances set for April 9, 10, 15, 16 and 17

ADRIAN, Mich. - Adrian College Theatre presents a monster musical comedy “Little Shop of Horrors” with book and lyrics by Howard Ashman and music by Alan Menken, on April 9, 10, 15, 16 and 17, 2010.

Watch out for monster musical comedy fun when you come to see this play. This voraciously funny musical spoofs 1950’s sci-fi movies is a classic boy-meets-girl, plant-eats-world tale. Set in a struggling "Skid Row" florist shop, a meek, mild-mannered, out-of-luck Seymour Krelbourn discovers an exotic little plant with a strange and unusual appetite. The plant is growing remarkably fast - and so is Seymour's love for Audrey, his co-worker at the flower shop. Seymour's fortunes begin to change - and the plant has a bloodthirsty secret that threatens anyone who comes near! The feeding-frenzy begins, as Seymour becomes a celebrity and the plant becomes a larger-than-life sensation.

This production will play in the Downs Hall Theatre with all five performances at 8 P.M. Ticket prices are $10.00 for the general public and $7.00 for students, seniors and Adrian College staff.

Downs Hall Theatre is located of off S. Madison St. on the Adrian College campus.
