THE cast of ‘Little Shop Of Horrors’ took to the stage for the opening performance of a four night run at Siamsa Tire last night.
Recognised as one of the all-time great comedy musicals, the production is presented by the multi-award-winning Light Opera Society of Tralee (LOST), and directed by up-and-coming young director Grainne O’ Carroll.
Choreographed by Katrina Galvin and musically directed by Aidan O’ Carroll and Anna Connolly, it’s a fully-staged production with live orchestra and a cast of twenty multi-talented performers.

The show which premiered off Broadway in 1982 tells the story of a mysterious, talking carnivorous plant (named Audrey II) with an insatiable appetite which devours everything in sight including, eventually, the entire cast – a sort of Horrible Histories meets Roald Dahl.
Leading the cast is well-known Killarney-based entertainer and music-theatre artist Jack Patrick Healy who plays the bumbling but sincere Seymour, shop assistant in Mushnik’s Florist Shop on New York’s Skid Row.
Mushnik is played by respected poet, broadcaster and former primary school teacher Sean Lyons.
Mounthawk students Sarah Cleary and former Mounthawk student Clodagh Harrington play Audrey, the object of Seymour’s affections, and Sean McElligott is the voice of Audrey II while Marcus Nolan who attends the Green C.B.S. plays the mad Dentist Orin.
Tickets are still available for the Thursday, Friday and Saturday performances at Siamsa Tire box office on 066-7123055. Tickets can also be booked by clicking here Scroll down for photos…
