Little Shop of Horrors

Following their critically acclaimed inaugural production of Spring Awakening in April this year, Assembled Junk

Productions announce their next project, a three week professional fringe production of Alan Menkin and Howard Ashman's cult classic musical Little Shop of Horrors.

Little Shop of Horrors is a comedy horror rock musical, about a hapless florist shop worker (Seymour) who raises a plant (Audrey II) that feeds on human blood and flesh. The musical is based on the low-budget 1960 black comedy film The Little

Shop of Horrors, directed by Roger Corman. The music, composed by Menken in the style of early 1960s rock and roll, doo-wop and early Motown, includes several well-known tunes, including the title song, 'Skid Row (Downtown)', 'Somewhere That's Green' and 'Suddenly, Seymour'.

Little Shop of Horrors is the second production by Assembled Junk to re-imagine the theatrical space above the Salfordian pub, and will also mark the debut production for James Baker as Artistic Director of The King's Arms a position he has recently taken up. The space has had a turbulent past, but James has a unique vision for turning the space into the best fringe theatre in Greater Manchester.
