Prepare to be scared silly with the cult classic Little Shop of Horrors by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, the first show in Playhouse on Park’s 2016-17 Mainstage Series. This show offers fun for the whole family! Opening night is Friday, Sept.16, at 8 p.m., with a pre-performance wine and cheese reception from 7 -8 p.m.
In this delightfully scary musical, Seymour, a nerdy floral clerk, happens upon a mysterious exotic plant. With the plant’s help, he becomes the talk of the town. The plant promises Seymour his ticket to fame, fortune – and the girl of his dreams. But how far will Seymour go until he realizes the true intentions of the plant? Book and Lyrics are by Howard Ashman and Music is by Alan Menken, the duo that created the hit Broadway musicals Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid.

On Tuesday, Sept. 27, a specially priced matinee will be presented, with all seats selling for $22.50. There will also be an Open Mic night on Saturday, Sept. 24, 2016 after the show!
