Show Synopsis:

Set in the early 1960’s, this rock musical centers on Seymour, a young man living and working in a run-down Skid Row florist shop. He discovers a unique new plant species, bringing him fame, fortune, and the confidence to win the heart of the woman he loves—Audrey. But all goes wrong when he discovers the plant, which can talk (and sing!) has an appetite for human blood.
