Little Shop of Horrors (Sheffield Crucible Theatre) - ★★★★ REVIEW

One of the last show's Mickey-Jo saw this year was a British regional theatre's revival of the musical LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS... which used British regional accents!

The show, created by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, is currently running at the Sheffield Crucible and stars Colin Ryan and Georgina Onuorah as Seymour and Audrey, with Sam Buttery as the iconic Audrey II.
