Chung Ying Theatre Company: Little Shop of HorrorsChung Ying Theatre Company

Little Shop of Horrors, a Broadway rock musical of the 1980s, took the theatre scene in Europe and the States by storm; it was later put onto the big screens. In 2002, the legendary Rupert Chan again adapted it for the stage of Chung Ying Theatre Company, where it remains a prized treasure.

In the rundown Skid Row, there is an inconspicuous, timeworn florist. A wide-eyed boy, who could often be found at the shop, is eager to grow a new flower variety to make money and capture a girl's attention. During a solar eclipse, he sees an unusual new flower variety with vibrant petals, vigorous growth, and impressive blooms. This new addition became the centre of attention for Skid Row and the boy, so much that even his crush is noticing him. Yet, an ominous tale lies beyond: could Skid Row face what's to come when the plant fully blooms?

After two decades, Chung Ying Theatre Company again presents Little Shop of Horrors, featuring new actors as well as a clever mix of art and technology that draws the audience into a dark tale around an unusual, deadly flower. The new edition will surely take the thrill and dark humour to the next level, leaving audiences more stunned and grippling at their seats than the original.
