Sherie Rene Scott and Nicholas Christopher Will Be Next Stars of Off-Broadway's Little Shop of Horrors

The hit Off-Broadway revival of Alan Menken and Howard Ashman's Little Shop of Horrors—which celebrated its fifth anniversary at the Westside Theatre with the unveiling of an “Audrey II” statue September 19 in Times Square—has announced its newest set of Skid Row's unlikely lovers.

Tony nominee Sherie Rene Scott (Everyday Rapture, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Aida) and Nicholas Christopher (Sweeney Todd, Hamilton, Miss Saigon) will step into the roles of, respectively, Audrey and Seymour beginning October 22. They will succeed current Little Shop stars Sarah Hyland and Andrew Barth Feldman, who will play their final performances September 29.

In the interim, the production will be led by a rotating cast of production wonderstudies. Jeff Sears and Camryn Hampton will perform October 1-6, with Johnny Newcomb and Hampton October 8-13. Teddy Yudain and Melissa Victor will perform October 15-17, and Weston Chandler Long and Victor will take performances October 18-20.
