NLOC to stage ‘Little Shop of Horrors’

Presenting summer musical theater in Park Rapids since 2002, Northern Light Opera Company (NLOC) will be producing “Little Shop of Horrors.”

Performances are July 28 through Aug. 5 at the Armory Arts & Events Center.

Cast members are in rehearsal, crew members are busy creating that little flower shop on Skid Row and the pit orchestra is preparing to share their skills to entertain all.

“Little Shop of Horrors” was a popular 1986 movie about a “nerdy florist who finds a chance for success and romance with the help of a giant man-eating plant who demands to be fed.”

“‘Little Shop of Horrors’ is enjoying a revival. It’s even on Guthrie Theater’s 2024 schedule,” said NLOC co-founders Pat and Paul Dove. “NLOC is fortunate to have very creative directors, casts, musicians, and tech folks to help create another memorable experience for community members and visitors.”

Tickets are available at Beagle & Wolf Book Store in ParkRapids or online at www.northernlightopera.org.
