LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS

If you have an appetite for dark comedy, desperate measures and a doo-wop score, you'll want to plant yourself in the Rinker Playhouse for a musical that sprouted from a low-budget horror film. With the fertilizing touch of composer Alan Menken and playwright Howard Ashman, the peculiar tale of a shy floral-shop worker and his carnivorous cohort has become a quirky classic.

Co-presented by the Kravis Center and MNM Productions.

Marshall E. Rinker, Sr. Playhouse

Tickets start at $35
