Last week I had a sneak peak of the “Little Shop of Horrors” theatrical production at the Ford’s Theatre as the cast rehearsed for the show. Check out the clip from “Don’t Feed the Plants” (the finale) above.

The Ford’s Theatre continues its 2009-2010 season with “Little Shop of Horrors” by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman through May 22, 2010. Purchase TICKETS ONLINE HERE.

One of the most popular musicals of all time, “Little Shop of Horrors” tells the story of the well-meaning flower shop employee Seymour Krelborn and his wisecracking carnivorous plant, Audrey II.

Seymour delights in the attention his leafy friend attracts, but when Audrey II develops a craving for human flesh, the situation spins out of control. Coy Middlebrook, a key member of the artistic team for “Shenandoah” and “Big River,” makes his Ford’s directorial debut with this zany American classic. Husband-and-wife team Christopher Kale Jones and Jenna Coker-Jones make their Ford’s Theatre debut as Seymour and Audrey. Purchase TICKETS ONLINE HERE.
