Little Shop of Horrors

Any fans here? I ask this because my high school drama class recently finished our production of the play, and I starred as Orin Scrivello, D.D.S. (aka The Dentist)

Yeah, that is a funny movie, I even liked both the old and new ones. By the way, maybe it is just these pictures, but you sure favor Dermot Mulroney a lot.

Nanner never ceases to remind me of a young Bruce Campbell.

Darth Richard: Oh, I'm sure you guys's budget was much bigger than ours was. Ours was very "ghetto". What part did you play?

Just thought I'd throw in a side note: those sideburns are indeed real. I put a little mascara on them for the show so they'd stand out a bit more, but they are indeed real.

That looks just like the plant we used in our production of Little Shop two years ago ... you didn't happen to go to Marquette High School, did you? Cause we stole ours from them ...

Dead ringer. Hmm, maybe you're a clone...

Our budget was really small, all of the money went to the Plant. And I was just ensemble. I sang off key at my audition , haha.

Well I go to San Pasqual, but I know that the plant we used travels around a lot. After we used it, it got shipped to Canada

I was just joking - Marquette made it when they did their production a few years back and we stole it.

I've never been to into musicals as I can't dance and I can't sing like one would need to in a musical, but I've always wanted to - and I'm sure I could - do The Who's Tommy. I've tried to convince my school to do it to no avail, and one of our community theatres did it when I was too young to know I was interested in The Who or theatre, but still recently enough that they don't want to do it again.

But I love straight plays - I was Paravicini in The Mousetrap my sophomore year, Charlie in Amateurs my junior year (my favorite part to play ever), Aide Warren in Dunes Summer Theatre's production of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (the only person under maybe 20-25 in the play and I played an adult), and Peter in Footlight community theatre's production of The Diary of Anne Frank the next year (playing someone two years younger than I), with the lady that played Nurse Ratched in Cuckoo's Nest and the director of Cuckoo's Nest (who happen to be married) as my mother and father, which was fun, even if the play was very wrenching to do, especially 3 weeks in a row.

And not to get this thread even more off track than I already have, but does anyone know anything about Fuddy Meers? I wanted to audition for it but unfortunately missed the date, but I was told by my friends that I would have easily made it in.

I'm actually planning a stage show of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" to perform at my school next year (even though I'm graduating this year). It'd be sort of a combination rock show/ stage show, and I've already talked to my friends/bandmates about it as well as my drama teacher, and they're all for it. I'm just trying to get all the copyright stuff out of the way first before I go talk to the school admins about it.

One of the local theatre groups might do Jekyll and Hyde: The Musical. I am looking forward to that

You might run into legal trouble with that, as Waters is preparing a Broadway production of it if memory serves. Last year I was actually kicking that around, and I realized that if you're going for a linear story in it, it can be done a la Tommy, but it works best if you insert "Have A Cigar" (from "Wish You Were Here") after "Goodbye Blue Sky" to show Pink's rising to rock-star status, slipping in visual references to his getting married within those two songs before you get to "Empty Spaces" (or "What Shall We Do Now?") and "Young Lust."

Well, see, I'm concentrating more on the concert aspect of it. I want to try to recreate some of what they did for their 1980 tour (big wall across the stage and all that; I've got a bootleg of one of their Earl's Court concerts). It's still really up in the air, but it'd be more of a rock concert than a musical. That's a good idea with "Have A Cigar" though!
