Little Shop of Horrors
Summer 2011
Merryman Performing Arts Center
Little Shop of Horrors is a rock musical, by composer Alan Menken and writer Howard Ashman, that follows a down and out skid row floral assistant who becomes an overnight sensation when he discovers an exotic plant with a mysterious craving for fresh blood. One of the longest running Off Broadway shows of all time, this affectionate musical has become a theater favorite.
The Merryman Performing Arts Center is a state of the art theater that houses many professional touring productions throughout the year. More than five million dollars was raised to create this outstanding venue which opened its doors in October of 2006. It seats approximately 700 when combining the orchestra and balcony. Crane River Theater is proud to join forces with the Merryman for the production this summer and for many years to come.
