​​When hapless Seymour falls in love with Audrey, she doesn't seem to notice him. But his strange new plant, Audrey II, helps capture her attention...and everyone else's. This Motown-infused musical is sure to make you laugh-and fear the words "feed me!"

"Most people know Little Shop from the 1980s movie, or a community production," said Director Rob Kempson. "I wanted to create a fresh, full-scale version for the Capitol, bringing in some of the country's most talented actors, designers, and musicians to make our biggest show of the summer an unforgettable night at the theatre. This is a Little Shop like you've never seen, nestled in the beautiful town of Port Hope."
