Video: Sarah Hyland Talks Returning to the Stage for LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS

Sarah Hyland, who just took over the role of Audrey from Jinkx Monsoon in the Off-Broadway production of Little Shop of Horrors, stopped by Live With Kelly and Mark to discuss returning to the stage after a long time away.

"It's been 17 years since I've done 8 shows a week...but everybody that's a part of Little Shop are the kindest, nicest, most talented people."

She went on to compliment her co-star Andrew Barth Feldman, and said "We just have so much fun together."

Hyland also discussed Audrey's characteristic voice in the show, clarifying that she doesn't do Ellen Greene's accent or Kerry Butler's, but her own take. 

In another video, she talked about her earlier work, including her Broadway debut in the 2006 musical Grey Gardens, when she was only 16.
