Squeals of delight and blood-curdling screams of fright fill the Allen Theatre as Cleveland Play House's (CPH) Centennial Season continues with a humorous and heartfelt production of LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. CPH's production brings this dark storyline to life with loads of gleefully twisted comedy and head-bopping doo-wop on the Allen Theatre stage now through Feb. 7. The theatre company just tweeted a first listen to original KINKY BOOTS cast member Joey Taranto performing 'Dentist!' - check it out below!

Set in a flower shop on Skid Row, Seymour is a nerdy floral clerk with a knack for plants, but not much else. However, one peculiar plant he's tending might just be his ticket to fame, fortune - and the girl of his dreams. There's only one teeny - but 'growing' - problem: This plant has an unquenchable thirst for the red stuff (type O, A, or B... he's not picky). Mixing Motown, B-movies, and The American Dream, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS is the screamingly funny, out-of-this-world hit musical featuring indelible songs like "Skid Row (Downtown)," "Somewhere That's Green," and "Suddenly, Seymour."

The LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS cast features KEV ABRAMS (Puppeteer), ARI BUTLER (Seymour), HALLIE BULLEIT (Urchin/Bassist), LARRY CAHN (Mr. Mushnik), BRITTANY CAMPBELL (Urchin/Guitarist), EDDIE COOPER (Voice of The Plant), KATE FERBER (Assistant Musical Director/Urchin/Keyboardist), INJOY FOUNTAIN (Urchin/Drummer), LAUREN MOLINA (Audrey), ALANNA SAUNDERS (Urchin/Vocalist), JOEY TARANTO (Orin) .

The Creative Team includes HOWARD ASHMAN (Playwright), ALAN MENKEN (Composer), AMANDA DEHNERT (Director/Musical Director/Choreographer), JUDE SANDY (Assistant Director).

The LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS Design Team features PHILIP WITCOMB (Scenic Designer), MELISSA TORCHIA (Costume Designer), BRIAN GALE (Lighting Designer), JOSH HORVATH (Sound Designer), PHANTOM LIMB (Puppet Design), WIGS AND WHISKERS (Wig Design).
