| "This show is based on an old black-and-white film – Roger Corman’s cult B movie classic which gave Jack Nicholson an early break. The show relies heavily on its two principles – Seymour, a downtrodden florist’s assistant and Audrey, the shopgirl with lousy taste in clothes and boyfriends. Jon Lovell played the former with an engaging sincerity which immediately gained the sympathy of the audience. Claire Helyer was a revelation as the sweet but vulnerable Audrey, searching for Somewhere That’s Green. As a foretaste of Hallowe’en, their version of Little Shop of Horrors was most definitely a treat." - Trevor Defferd, Newbury Weekly News |
