Based on the film by Roger Corman (screenplay by Charles Griffith), this affectionate spoof of 1950s sci-fi movies 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. Soon “Audrey II” grows into an ill-tempered, foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore who offers him fame and fortune in exchange for feeding its growing appetite, finally revealing itself to be an alien creature poised for global domination!  One of the longest-running Off-Broadway shows of all time, this cult classic has become a household name, thanks to a highly successful film version and a score by Alan Menken that is charming, tuneful and hilarious.
