Cerro Coso Announces Cast and Crew for Spring Musical

March 17, 2009

The Cerro Coso Community College, Theatre Department has announced the cast for the spring musical Little Shop of Horrors and rehearsals are underway.  Little Shop of Horrors is based on the film by Roger Corman and screenplay by Charles Griffith.  The musical’s book is written by Howard Ashman with lyrics by Alan Menken and music by Howard Ashman.  The show features a down-and-out skid row floral assistant who becomes an overnight sensation when he discovers an exotic plant with a mysterious craving for fresh blood.  The plant, “Audrey II,” grows into an ill-tempered, fowl-mouthed R&B singing carnivore who offers the floral assistant fame and fortune in exchange for feeding its growing appetite. 
 
The Cerro Coso cast and crew include 36 talented students.  Josh Rodriguez will play the starring role of the hapless florist and Robert Wilson will play the voice of the carnivorous plant, Audrey II.  The show will feature puppets from The Puppet Company of Oakland, CA.  Thomas Cozine will serve as Puppet Master for the show.  Seymour’s boss, Mushnik, will be played by Ben Bockhahn and his love interest, Audrey, will be played by Krysten Coursey.  Audrey’s abusive boyfriend, Orin, will be played by Chad Terry.  Becki Cornett, Stacey Shoaf, and Theresa Jones play the three young, hip street urchins.  Other Little Shop cast members include Rick Tobias, DJ Rathaur, Ashley McCormick, Brittany Coble, Calvin Johnson, Ila Johnson, Leanne Pearl, Daniel Stallings, Brianna Cote, Shyanne Evans, Katherine Fox, Christian Sherman, and Christina Skelton.
 
The show is being directed by Dr. Melinda Fogle Oliver.  Becki Cornett and Robin Moen are serving as the Assistant Directors.  Lauren Loewen is serving as Vocal Coach and Accompanist.  Ryan Zeigler will be playing the drums and Alec Jaks will be playing the Bass for the show.  Stacey Shoaf and Brianna Cote are the dance choreographers and Krysten Coursey is the fight choreographer. 
 
The Technical Crew is busy preparing for the upcoming show as well.  Stephen Miller is serving as Technical Director for Little Shop.  Chelsia Acevedo is Assistant Technical Director.  Gavin Fielder is the Set Designer for the Show.  Lighting will be designed by Lucas Warkentin and sound will be designed by Rob Wilson.  Costumes are being designed by Chalen Wilson and Robin Moen.  Ila Johnson is the show’s Properties Mistress.  The show is being stage managed by Rene Soto and Assistant Stage Managed by Ashley McCormick.  Additional technical Crew members include Franklin Hamilton, Jeff Tobias, AJ Fraser, Meghan Briggs, and Thomas Lowe.
 
Mark your calendars now for this show!  Little Shop of Horrors will be presented on Friday, May 8 and Saturday, May 9 at 7:00 p.m. and on Sunday, May 10 at 2:00 p.m.  This performance is not recommended for small children.  Tickets will be $7 for general admission and $6 for students, seniors, and military.  Tickets will be available in April at the Cerro Coso Community College Business Office and at Red Rock Books.
