    Wow!!!! Incredibly impressed by the performance. The staging, singing, costumes, choreography and all of the production. (And the puppetry… incredible) I’m a huge musical fan, go to the theatre a lot. And I know the original film and the west end productions of Little Shop of Horrors really well and wasn’t expecting this to be anywhere near that level… I was wrong. In fact the 2 leading parts are phenomenal, could be on at a West End theatre! The shows I have booked to see next in London have a LOT to live up to. Cute little theatre. Glad I booked a parking space (JustPark) tho as would have been very difficult I think without it. Well done everyone. Truly brilliant.
