Campy modern classic musical ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ at Jubilee
Seymour is a nerd with no game until he nurtures an alien plant bent on world domination and wins the girl and the fame … at a price. The late, great Howard Ashman first teamed with composer Alan Menken for Little Shop of Horrrors, a modern classic with catchy songs and surprising heart, set in the early 1960s. Jubilee Theatre, which specializes in shows with African-American themes, produced this doo-wopping delight.
