It's really more funny than scary. The play is about a man eating plant if that at all answers your question. Unless you are really easily scared it shouldn't be bad. I really enjoyed and the music is awesome! I hope you enjoy it!

The musical Little Shop of Horrors was adapted from an old black and white horror movie, which was about as scary as a fluffy kitten curled in a ball of sunshine and batting a butterfly playfully.
The musical itself is much more a comedy and could be viewed as a minor social comment on Projects in major cities(a lot of musicals seem to have a habit of ulterior messages). After watching the production on stage, I recommend watching the film production. You'll find the movie has a different ending. It's up to you to figure out which you like, though I do prefer the movie as I like to singing better than the other productions I've heard.

Don't know how much you know about it, but the off-Broadway production, near the end, when the plant is busting out of its pot and walking toward the audience, they had a "vine drop" -- like a balloon drop but with little tentacly vines that scared some folks to death. I was in 2 productions -- one as Mr. Mushnik and one as Seymour -- that didn't have the vine drop; so when, I directed it in high school, I made sure we had a vine drop. Another production had vines on pulleys that were pulled into the audience from the back of the house; they started at the edge of the stage and started creeping toward the audience members. Way cool! Most productions either don't know about the drop or just run out of time technically to get it rigged up. Other than that, the show is WAY more funny than scary. Enjoy!

somewhat? I chuckle so not undemanding i'm unable to breath. Twilight is sticking a toe in a muddy, trash filled swampland while there's a much better, greater advantageous, cleanser ocean accessible. Bella is... somebody i'm hoping I not at all meet. She's based on adult adult males (No offense adult adult males), which I unquestionably hate in characters through fact it makes our gender seem weaker. If youthful ladies, adolescents, and youthful adults prefer a competent place sort, Esmeralda from the Hunchback of Notre Dame is a great one. (sure, i'm a classic Disney fan, while they actually knew what they have been doing.)

its a funny play not meant to be scarey in the least and its awesome has some of the best music by major composers who did a few early late 80s 90s Disney Musical/Cartoons(Alan Menken and Howard Ashman)
