Long before Bill Gates made nerds trendy, there was Seymour Krelborn, a hapless florist searching for love, aided by a bizarre plant with an insatiable appetite for human blood. With Motown-style music and true to its original roots — Roger Corman’s 1960s black comedy film and the subsequent Off-Broadway show — Little Shop of Horrors is a love story about what happens when botany goes horribly wrong.
The Director is seeking a multi ethnic cast to create a “Skid Row” that is racially and ethnically diverse. ALL ETHNICITIES are strongly encouraged to submit.
SEEKING:
The Plant:
African American Male with a strong rhythm & blues singing voice – baritone, capable of singing high and skilled with rhythmic speak-singing. A knack for comedic timing and delivery, as well as ability to vocally improv the various musical styles. And preferably a deep, but aggressive speaking voice.
Seymour:
20s to early 30s. A strong tenor. Seymour is not a sap or a caricature, he’s impressionable, struck with permanent innocence. A gifted, physical and comedic actor. Prefer to cast role as an African-American or non-Caucasian man.
Audrey:
20s to early 30s. A high belter. 20s . A beautiful, hopeless, young, innocent, and gifted comedic actress with a killer voice who places her love in all the wrong places. Prefer to cast role as an African-American or Non-Caucasian woman.
Orin:
25 to 25. A strong baritone voice, gifted with physical comedy as well as capable of playing several comedic characters. Not afraid of motorcycles. (There is the strong possibility that Orin may/will ride a motorcycle on stage briefly) Great with choreography. Any ethnicity.
