Breakdown
The Roles of Seymor Audrey, Audrey II, and the Urchins are cast.
Seeking Mr. Mushnik, Orin Scrivello and possible Urchin understudies.
Please prepare a song in the style of the show, and be prepared to learn a
dance combination.
Seymour Krelborn:
The insecure, exhausted, and naive florist’s clerk. He is an orphan and an awkward hero with a good heart who transforms from a meek underdog into a morally conflicted accomplice.
Audrey:
The sweet, bleached-blond co-worker with a low self-image and a tackier fashion sense. She is the secret love of Seymour’s life.
Audrey II:
The foul-mouthed, anthropomorphic flytrap and avocado-like plant from outer space. Requires an imposing, rhythm-and-blues vocal styling and distinct puppetry manipulation.
Crystal, Ronnette, and Chiffon:
A trio of street urchins. They function as both narrators/observers of the Skid Row action and a doo-wop Greek chorus.
Mr. Mushnik:
The cranky, failing flower shop owner who is Seymour’s boss. He seldom smiles and is quick to scold.
Orin Scrivello:
Audrey’s handsome, and sadistic dentist boyfriend. He wears a leather jacket and relishes in inflicting pain.
