Little Shop of Horrors

[cassandra_7]

I would like to say, as a huge fan of musicals, and of Little Shop of Horrors in specific, that I agree with every positive thing that has been said about the current production at the Lyceum.

There are no weak points. (other than a lack of Mean Green Mother, but it turns out that's specific to the film and not part of the original stage musical)  The show rocks.  All the performances are awesome.  The American accents are even good (turns out two of the actors *are* American).

Also, somewhat mind-blowing, the actors had three week's rehearsal (four if you count 'the technical') before touring.  Arrrrrrgggggghhhhh.

GO SEE THIS MUSICAL.

(Not copied to theatre_cass as everyone on there also is on this one.)

I agree completely! :D

Out of curiosity, which cast member other than Mike McShane is American?

I was very impressed with Clare Buckfield's accent as Audrey- my last memory of her is as a snotty English teenager in a sitcom!

I did not know that Big Green Mother was written for the film and wasn't in the original play. I've learnt something today!
