Little Shop of Horrors – Meek and mild floral assistant Seymour Krelborn, stumbles upon a seemingly sweet pea of plant. Naming her Audrey II in honor of his girl-crush, he watches her grow to be sleek and wild. Suddenly Seymour is standing beside a bloodthirsty, Fly Trap in this beloved musical with an R & B beat. Little Shop will be performed by an ensemble of all student actors at the Nafe Katter Theatre on the UConn Storrs Campus.
