Theatre Unleashed will present Little Shop of Horrors Sept. 20 - Oct. 27 at studio/stage in Hollywood. Little Shop of Horrors is the modern classic tale of a boy and his man-eating plant. Stuck working as a florist's assistant for a fledgling flower shop in the slums of Skid Row, Seymour Krelborn, an orphan and hopeless romantic, strikes gold (or at least a vein) when he happens upon a most exotic and unusual plant he dubs "Audrey 2" -- after his doe-eyed object of desire and co-worker Audrey. The only problem is the plant's nutrient of choice is blood…human blood! Performances are 8pm at studio/stage, 520 N. Western Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90004. Tickets are $20. www.theatreunleashed.com
