Just in time for Halloween, the North Fork Community Theatre is set to debut a Broadway and Hollywood classic, “Little Shop of Horrors.”
The show, written by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken, tells the well-loved story of “meek” floral assistant Seymour Krelborn, who “stumbles across a new breed of plant he names Audrey II, after his co-worker crush,” according to a description of the show by the NFCT. “This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down-and-out Seymour as long as he keeps feeding it what it wants. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out-of-this-world origins and true intent and sets out to put things right.”
Performances will be held at 8 p.m. on October 29, 30 and 31, November 5, 6 and 7, and November 12, 13 and 14; and at 2:30 p.m. on November 1, 8 and 5.
Tickets cost $20, with student rush tickets, $15, offered 10 minutes before curtain time, if available. Call 631-298-NFCT for a ticket or a full-season subscription. To order tickets online, click here.
An opening night reception will be held on Thursday night at 7 p.m., sponsored by the Village Cheese Shop, with wine tasting by Sannino Bella Vito Vineyard.
The North Fork Community Theatre is located at 12700 Sound Avenue in Mattituck.
