Don't Miss the Wilson Theater Company's Presentation of
"Little Shop of Horrors!"
The botanical blood lust musical comedy about a hapless florist shop worker, the girl of his dreams, and one very voracious plant, arrives on the Wilson stage! A deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, Little Shop Of Horrors has devoured the hearts of theater goers for over thirty years.

The meek floral assistant, Seymour Krelborn, stumbles across a new breed of plant he names "Audrey II" -- after his coworker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn, as long as he keeps feeding it... blood! Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II's out of this world origins and intent towards global domination! 

The Wilson Theater Company show dates for this musical comedy are November 15, 16, & 17! Purchase your tickets here .
