"...Little Shop of Horrors, based on the 1960 science-fiction film by Roger Corman, opened off-Broadway at the Orpheum Theatre in Manhattan's East Village on July 27, 1982. The production, directed by lyricist Howard Ashman, was so popular that David Geffen and team swooped in to buy the rights. The music, composed by Alan Menken in the style of early 1960s rock and roll, doo-wop, and Motown, includes several well-known songs: the title song, "Skid Row (Downtown)," "Somewhere That's Green," and "Suddenly, Seymour." The musical was made into a 1986 film of the same name, directed by Frank Oz, and produced by, you guessed it, David geffen."

"...The Nocturne Theatre and Little Shop Of Horrors prove to be a match made in musical comedy heaven as Glendale's signature theater-in-the-round puts its own quirky, kooky, all-around fabulous stamp on the one-of-a-kind off-Broadway-to-Broadway horror musical classic."
