Little Shop of Horrors (Westside Theatre)

See it if You like a funny, light story

Don't see it if You want to see a serious, intense show. Singing is not the best so if this will bother you don’t go

See it if You love this show. It is a classic, and this cast is tops.

Don't see it if You've had enough "Little Shop"

See it if Such a wonderful revival with sly comedy and great singing.

Don't see it if You don't like musical comedy at its finest.

See it if you want to thoroughly entertained with some dark humor.

Don't see it if you're not a fan of catchy songs.

Also This was fantastic. Groff stole the show, but every single supporting player did their part to match him. The street urchins' energy and voices were fantastic. Borle's many moments were scene stealing. Blanchard's Audrey was the one I'm still not 100% sold on. I liked that she made it her own, but it wasn't my favorite. Everyone should be so lucky to see this show!... Read more Read less

See it if you want to see great performances by Jonathan Groff and Christian Borle in a fun revival of a quirky musical.

Don't see it if you want a large scale musical, extensive sets, costumes, etc.--also the block the theater is on actually feels like Skid Row!

See it if This is a beautiful production of one of our best shows. Performances are top notch and its design is flawless.

Don't see it if Not for people who don’t enjoy a dark sense of humor. Not for people who are looking for carbon copies of the film or original production.

Also I saw Jonathan Groff the first time. His performance was decent but this man has a spitting problem, especially when he’s singing. Buckets of spit shooting out of his mouth. It was disgusting and I don’t understand why no one has put a stop to it. The next two times, I saw Gideon Glick. He was born to play Seymour. Truly a mesmerizing and honest performance. Tammy Blanchard’s Audrey is so far removed from Ellen Greene, it’s like a brand new character. And it works magnificently. Christian plays a dozen roles and is having the time of his life. Everyone on that stage is 100% committed. If you’re looking for the joy this season, it’s at the Westside Theatre. Go go go!... Read more Read less

Also I love this show and the West Side Theater is the perfect size for this production. Groff and Borle are great. I was disappointed in Tammy Blanchard as Audrey, she didn't sound great, we think she was sick. The urchins didn't blend as well as others that I have heard.... Read more Read less

Don't see it if you'll be put off by Blanchard as Audrey trying to do something a bit different and grittier than Ellen Greene's nasal simper.
