ALVA, Okla. — The Northwestern Oklahoma State University Reichenberger Department of Fine Arts will present the musical “Little Shop of Horrors” April 23, 24 and 26 in Fellers Family Auditorium in Herod Hall on the Alva campus.

“Little Shop of Horrors,” with book and lyrics by Howard Ashman and music by Alan Menken, is a dark comedy musical that follows Seymour Krelborn, a shy floral assistant who discovers a mysterious plant with a taste for blood. As the plant, named Audrey II, grows, Seymour finds himself drawn into a dangerous situation as fame, fortune and moral choices collide. Known for its humor, memorable music and unique storyline, the production has become one of the longest-running and most popular Off-Broadway musicals.
