WOW. That was so sad to see this show go. Joey was good (I can't belive i'm saying that) and Snow was great! I took pictures during the finale and the end of the show, I'll post them here soon. I was front row Mezz. so i think i got some great pictures.

After the show Rob spoke a few words about Little Shop, and Hunter came to the stage, as well as the great Alan Menken, Jerry Zaks, and many more. They all sang a "goodbye" song to little shop, and then the show ended.

Thats was a very sad night.. If you could see how Carla, Trisha, and Dequina cried..

Well, i'll be posting my pictures here very soon.. Updated On: 8/22/04 at 11:13 PM

I was there too, it was heart-breaking. Everyone seemed very sad. Great to see Hunter there, supporting the new cast.
What a sad closing of such a great show

They're probably partying this minute. Can't wait to see pics on Broadway.com.

At least we still have the tour running.

darlin', Howard Ashman is dead. Was it Alan Menken?

P.S. You can't post those pics--they are extremely illegal.

There have been 289471230492 posts with illegal pix and no ones done anything about them. It should be fine if you post them.

[Bway37]

Posted: 8/22/04 at 11:26pm

No.. kerry wasn't there..
I loved kerry in little shop..
(today was my fifth time seeing the show)

Bway37, I sat in row F, orchestra.

No, Kerry was not there... well, they didn't ask her to join them on stage, so I guess she wasn't there (Hunter joined them on stage).

I can't belive there is no Little Shop anymore...

PRODUCERS, PLEASE REVIVE LITTLE SHOP IN 20 YEARS!!

I'd forgotten that since LSOH has closed, that frees up Jessica-Snow Wilson to rejoin the Les Miz tour as Eponine in the fall. I hope she doesn't.

I thought that sound clip of her in "Suddenly Seymour" was amazing.

[Bway37]

Posted: 8/22/04 at 11:35pm

Well, i don't think so, because after the show (stage door) someone asked her what she is doing now (after little shop) and she said "Nothing yet".

I liked Wilson as Eponine when I saw her...

Anyway, I too was there this evening. I really enjoyed the "new" cast. (I say new because I saw the OBC a bunch of times and not the replacements) The only thing that didn't thrill me was Robert replacing Doug. He just wasn't as good.

I was glad to see Hunter there though.

"Well, i don't think so, because after the show (stage door) someone asked her what she is doing now (after little shop) and she said "Nothing yet"

That's a relief.

Not that I ever wish unemployement on people, but she was one of the worst Eponines I ever saw.

Do you remember the kissing part (after suddenly seymour)?
It was SO FUNNY TONIGHT!!

[QueenMuppet]

Posted: 8/22/04 at 11:42pm

Ha, the kissing scene really made me laugh tonight. I was actually surprised how much I enjoyed Joey Fatone's performance. I thought he was really good. And I'm usually not a fan of stunt casting.

It was a great finale for LSOH tonight. The National Tour is now enroute to a Tues night start in LA at the Ahmanson. I strongly urge everyone to catch this wonderful show now starring Anthony Rapp and Tari Kelly. It tours at least through late 2005.

But i really want to see the tour!!

Musetta I hope to God you didn't see Megan Lawrence then.

I had a lot of fun when I saw Little Shop... I'm really upset to see it go.

"Musetta I hope to God you didn't see Megan Lawrence then..."

You mean the original Little Becy Two Shoes?

Dont worry. In a world like today where everything is revived shows never die!...they just sleep for awhile . Im glad everyone had a great time. I still think it should have ran at least another 3 months..it wasnt time i tell ya, wasnt time (begins to tear)
