Encores! Off-Center: Little Shop of Horrors

More than 30 years after originating the role of Audrey in Howard Ashman and Alan Menken's utterly winsome horror-camp musical about a dangerous breed of power plant, Ellen Greene pulls a Carol Channing and returns to the role for a two-day concert run. Jake Gyllenhaal is Seymour, SNL player Taran Killam is Scrivello, Eddie Cooper is the green meanie, and the original Caroline, or Change radio girls are the urchins; Dick Scanlan directs for the Encores! Off-Center series. Good luck getting tickets to this buzz-frenzy event; they've been sold out for months.
