We want all families to feel informed and comfortable when attending our productions.
Parents and guardians should be aware that this musical contains the following content:
- Themes of violence, including a man-eating plant that consumes human characters (depicted theatrically, not graphically)
- Cartoon/comedic depictions of death and peril
- Domestic abuse themes within a dating relationship
- Mild adult humor consistent with the show's 1980s musical comedy tone
- Mild mature language, including minor profanity
- Loud sound effects and special effects, including dramatic lighting and theatrical surprises that may startle young children
Little Shop of Horrors is a beloved, Tony Award–winning musical comedy and is entirely appropriate for most school-age audiences.
