Little Shop of Horrors
December 2-18, 2022

Written by Jason Robert Brown

To highlight the end of our 5th season we explore the journey of two New Yorkers in their twenties who fall in and out of love. Tracing a five-year relationship between Jamie Wellerstein, a rising novelist, and Cathy Hiatt, a struggling actress, the show uses an unconventional form of storytelling. Jamie's viewpoint is told in chronological order (starting just after the couple has first met), but Cathy's story is told backward when at the top of the show she sings about the end of her marriage. In addition, the characters do not directly interact and only meet once, at their wedding, which happens in the middle of the show. This December you won't want to miss an emotionally powerful and intimate musical composed by Jason Robert Brown called, The Last Five Years.

Red Level (High Risk):

  • Patrons, staff, actors, and volunteers must be vaccinated and wear face masks at all times.

Yellow Level (Medium Risk): 

  • Patrons, staff, actors, and volunteers must be vaccinated and wear face masks at all times.

Green Level (Low Risk):

  • Patrons are encouraged to be vaccinated. Face masks are required.

FACE MASKS

Additionally, facial masks, worn properly over the nose and mouth, will be required for all patrons (including children under 12) in all areas and for the duration of their time in the theatre, including while seated during performances. Patrons arriving without appropriate face masks will be provided a disposable face mask.
