Little Shop of Horrors
Theatre Royal Hobart
Every love story needs a little fertilizer
You know the story. Boy meets girl. Boy buys talking plant to impress girl. Plant develops a taste for human flesh and threatens global domination. Classic romance.
After it's sold-out premiere season – Aussie critics were unanimous! "Thrilling and impeccably crafted" – Fame Reporter "Blooms with blood and brilliance" – Limelight and Australian Stage screamed "Not to be missed. You can't ask for better!"
Don't sleep on this one. And whatever you do...dont feed the plant!
Down on Skid Row, Seymour's dead-end hustle turns upside down when his bizarre new botanical flex becomes an overnight sensation. But fame, fortune, and winning the girl come with a body count, and this carnivorous monster's appetite is completely unhinged.
Part sci-fi horror, part razor-sharp satire, Little Shop of Horrors is the ultimate cult classic about ambition, greed, and the terrifying cost of getting everything you ever wanted. Equal parts hilarious, camp, and deeply twisted, this high-octane spectacle blends B-movie mayhem, outrageous comedy, and jaw-dropping puppetry with a killer score of '60s pop, doo-wop, and rock 'n' roll—featuring irresistible hits like Suddenly Seymour, Feed Me (Git It) and Dentist!
