Porch Productions stages the comic sci-fi musical about Seymour, a struggling flower-shop assistant whose unusual plant promises fame and fortune while developing a dangerous appetite. The Alan Menken and Howard Ashman score draws on 1960s pop, rock and R&B.
The show is recommended for ages 10 and older because of stylized comic violence and mild language. Its centerpiece is a foul-mouthed, singing, people-eating plant, but the treatment is intentionally theatrical and humorous.
The Bank of America Center garage offers a preferred $10 rate after 5 p.m. on weekdays and throughout the weekend. Retain the entry ticket and collect an exit-pass sticker in the lobby; prepaid parking is unavailable on the show date.
