Little Shop of Horrors

Event information

Following Assembled Junk Productions critically acclaimed inaugural sell-out production of Spring Awakening in April this year, which earned them a residency at The Kings Arms, Assembled Junk are pleased to announce their next project, a three week professional fringe production of Alan Menkin and Howard Ashman’s cult classic musical Little Shop of Horrors.

Little Shop of Horrors is a comedy horror rock musical, about a hapless florist shop worker (Seymour) who raises a plant (Audrey II) that feeds on human blood and flesh. The musical is based on the low-budget 1960 black comedy film The Little Shop of Horrors, directed by Roger Corman. The music, composed by Menken in the style of early 1960s Rock 'n' Roll, Doo-Wop and early Motwon includes several well-known tunes, including the title song, ‘Skid Row (Downtown)’, ‘Somewhere That's Green’ and ‘Suddenly, Seymour’.

Little Shop of Horrors is the second production by Assembled Junk to re-imagine the theatrical space above the iconic pub, and will also mark the debut production for James Baker as Artistic Director of The King’s Arms a position he has recently taken up.

This is a production that is not to be missed by children and adults alike!
