Little Shop of Horrors - In rehearsal
Tuesday, July 23, 2013
Downtown
Where the cabs don't stop
Downtown
Where the food is slop
Downtown
Where the hop-heads flop
in the snow
Down on Skid Row
The show begins, introducing you to a cast of characters down on their luck. Seymour, a shop boy in a dead end job, with a crush on a girl who sees right through him.
Then, one seemingly normal day, everything changes for the lonely shop boy after a solar eclipse.
And when the light came back this weird plant was just sitting there,
whoop-see-doo
just, you know, stuck in, among the zinnias.
Audrey Two.
I coulda sworn it hadn't been there before,
but the old Chinese man sold it to me anyways,
for a dollar ninety-five.
Sha la la, la la la, la la la loo.
The plant was different alright and it takes just a small sacrifice on Seymour's part to make him grow. Who would have guessed that a drop of blood and this plant could make dreams come true!
All the world used to hate him
Now they're startin' t'appreciate him
All because of that strange little plant
Over there
Fame, success, and even a family for our zero turned hero.
Now, do it now
Just a flicker of pressure right here on the trigger
And Audrey won't have to put up that pig for another day
Now- for the girl, now- for the plant
Now- yes I will... but I can't
Suddenly Seymour is standin' beside you
You don't need no makeup, don't have to pretend
Suddenly Seymour is here to provide you
Sweet understanding
Seymour's your friend
