11th Hour Theatre Company and Theatre Horizon are set to present their reimagination of the Alan Menken-Howard Ashman musical, Little Shop of Horrors at Prince Music Theater’s Independence Black Box, November 27-December 20. Megan Nicole O’Brien will direct.

In the show, Seymour Krelborn, a down-and-out Skid Row floral assistant with a secret crush on his beautiful co-worker becomes an overnight sensation when he discovers an exotic plant with a mysterious craving for fresh blood.

The cast will star Steve Pacek as Seymour, Melinda Bass as Audrey, and M.K. Hines and Craig Patrick O’Brien as the voice and movement of the deadly plant, Audrey II. The cast will also feature Laura Giknis as Chiffon, Alex Keiper as Ronette, Candace Thomas as Crystal, Carl Clemons-Hopkins as Orin Scrivello, and Paul McElwee as Mushnick.

The creative team will include Shelley Hicklin (lighting design), Dan Kazemi (musical direction), Lauren Perigard (costume design), Jenn Rose (choreography), and Mark Valenzuela (sound design).
