Little Shop of Horrors

The very first week of school, auditions were held for Little Shop of Horrors, and Emily was there. It's a fun show with great music, and she wanted to be a part of it. Her wish came true when she was cast in the chorus. Rehearsals started right away, and her life was suddenly very busy!


One day she came home with some funky camouflage make-up on. In the final scene, the cast members are morphed into plants - the results of Audrey II destroying humanity and taking over the world. The make-up people were experimenting with a way to transform the cast members' faces into plants, and used Emily as their canvas. Pretty cool!




 Their director, Mr. Bertram, decided to instill a new tradition at ACMA - Red Carpet Day. On the day of the show's opening, cast members were encouraged to come to school dressed for the red carpet. Emily got all dolled up in a new dress, make-up, and heels. Oh, my! She's so grown up! And, what a beauty!

 

Wish I had some pictures from the play itself to post, but, alas, no flash photography was allowed during he play. :-(  Emily did a fine job in her roles as a homeless person (very convincing!), a fangirl - complete with a line to speak! - and a human plant scaring audience members at the end of the show.

Exhausted after the play ended, she was happy to have her life back, but so glad she was a part of a production some say was the finest ACMA has produced yet!
