About
Porchlight stages the darkly comic musical about a florist, sudden fame and one ravenous plant.
Little Shop of Horrors pairs Alan Menken and Howard Ashman’s familiar score with a gleefully macabre story about ambition, romance and a flesh-eating plant. Porchlight’s Chicago production offers a full musical-theater night with an unusually early 5 PM start, useful for anyone avoiding a late Tuesday.
