Year 11 Drama students recently attended the Crucible Theatre ’s Christmas musical, Little Shop of Horrors. When flower shop assistant Seymour acquires a mysterious new plant, he names it ‘Audrey II’ after his crush and co-worker. As the strange and unusual plant grows and grows, it offers Seymour the kind of success he could only ever dream of… as long as he keeps feeding it! The set, lights, costumes and incredible performers gave our Year 11 students plenty to analyse and evaluate as part of their GCSE course. For some students, it was the first time they have ever been to a theatre and was a great experience for all involved.
