Little Shop of Horrors Reviews
Little Shop of Horrors
Stage Scene LA- Highly Recommended
"...Clarice Ordaz’s pizzazzy choreography and Jennifer Lin’s expert musical direction merit kudos of their own as does Josh Bessom’s expert sound design, and what a treat it is to see Scott Pask’s 2003 glorious Broadway revival touring sets and William Ivey Long’s stunning costumes (both designs uncredited) along with Melissa Dupont’s hair, wig, and makeup designs spectacularly lit by Steven Young."
Stage Raw- Recommended
"...Little Shop of Horrors really needs no introduction. Its blend of infectious doo-wop, dark comedy, sci-fi, and giant plant puppets has made it an enduring favorite. It is a lighthearted horror-comedy on the surface, while underneath lies a Faustian cautionary tale about the price we’re willing to pay for success, love, and acceptance. It follows Seymour Krelborn, a hapless florist who discovers a mysterious plant that offers him everything he wants in exchange for human blood."
LA Excites- Highly Recommended
"...This Little Shop of Horrors doesn't radically alter the recipe, nor does it need to. It simply allows the people caught up in all the blood, camp and botanical mayhem to feel a little more human, which in turn makes their hopes, mistakes and consequences matter a little more. And at a brisk two hours, including intermission, it sates the appetite while leaving you wanting to be fed just a little more."
