The Lycoming College Theatre Department debuted “Little Shop of Horrors” in 1988. This entertaining, horror-sci-fimusical comedy featuring the creative geniuses of Howard Ashman (book and lyrics) and Alan Menken (music) is one of the longest running off-Broadway shows and has entertained theatre goers for more than 35 years. The theatre department kicked off its 2023-24 season with the cult favorite in November. Directed by Biliana StoytchevaHorissian, Ph.D., chair and associate professor of theatre, this charmingly tongue-in-cheek dark comedy tells the story of a timid floral assistant, Seymour Krelborn, played by Chayton Wesneski ’26, who stumbles across a new breed of plant and names it after his crush, Audrey, played by Julia Martin ’25. The foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune as long as it is well fed, and Seymour must realize the plant’s intent toward global domination before it is too late.
