Right off their smash hit, sold out run of “Rent,” Some Theatre Company will present “Little Shop of Horrors” as you have never seen it before.
When a socially awkward florist shop clerk named Seymour buys a strange new plant right after a solar eclipse, he and his colleagues quickly discover that this odd looking seedling may in fact be the key to saving their floundering Skid Row flower shop.
As the shop thrives, all because of the strange looking plant in the window, so does Audrey II into a giant, deep throated, blood sucking carnivore with nefarious designs of world domination!
Enjoying his new found success Seymour must decide if he can sacrifice it all in order to save the world from this alien plant and its sinister spores.
Little Shop will continue the trend of immersive theatre experiences being produced by Some Theatre Company. From the moment the audience walks into the space, they will be entering Skid Row. Audience members will be inches away from the action and very much part of the story. Unlike traditional productions, this will be a unique theater experience unlike anything theatergoers have experienced before, and perfect for the Halloween Season.
Shows will be held at the Keith Anderson Community House, 19 Bennoch Road, Orono on Nov. 2 and 7 at 7.30 p.m.; Nov. 3 and 8 at 2 and 7:30 p.m.; and Nov. 4 and 9 at 2 p.m.. Parental discretion is advised.
There also will be a special Halloween event at 8 p.m. on Oct. 31. Dancing and events will start at 7 p.m. and there will be a costume contest, photo booth, snacks and drinks, as well as dance music.
