THERE is a very hungry, monstrous, man-eating plant seeking to devour all the students at Monbulk College.
Be warned – watch out – our students are in danger.
In this reprisal of the Broadway musical comedy, Little Shop of Horrors, which features a score and lyrics by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, a small drop of blood ignites a tale not to be missed.
For almost half the year, a cast of over 50 students have been preparing for this production, which begins on 28 August at 7.30pm in the College Theatre.
With great wit and a joke or two, Seymour (acted by John Riddell) has been attempting to grow this carnivorous plant under the greedy gaze of Mr Mushnik (Callum Brown/Floyd McMurdie) all for fame and fortune and maybe a little love from his gorgeous co-worker, Audrey (Jacinta Meadows/Nari Ruigrok-Riis).
Some snappy street urchins, a ferocious motorcycle-riding dentist, a singing and dancing chorus and a father/son duo controlling the all-devouring plant round off this first Broadway musical that Monbulk College has held for over 10 years.
This extraordinary and captivating event is not to be missed and will leave you amazed at the talent of the teenage actors. Monbulk College is very proud to present this production to the community. Tickets are available at www.trybooking.com/FKTJ or contact the college.
