Closed for Renovations - Original Broadway Cast - Little Shop - 09/21/2003 Preview Performance

Here is "Closed for Renovations" from the September 23, 2003 preview performance of the original Broadway production of "Little Shop of Horrors" at the Virginia Theatre in New York.
After the failed Florida try-out earlier in the year, the video of which is posted here ( • Video ), the show was totally scrapped and reproduced from the ground up, with a new director (Jerry Zaks), new choreography, new set-design, and a new cast. Virtually the only element to survive the move to Broadway was the casting of Hunter Foster (fresh off of the musical URINETOWN) in the role of Seymour Krelborn.
The cast also features Kerry Butler as Audrey and Rob Bartlet and Mushnik.

I am 90% sure Rob Bartlett did that high note at the end thinking he could pull it off and not as a joke lol

@@dougy_dawg 1:23 but now that I'm listening to it again, I can hear Mushnik's lower part being sung by Rob, so it must be Hunter Foster with it lmao

Do you have the whole show? It says unavailable....

[@ComputerGeek1100]

Kelly Scott not sure if it’s the exact same performance (same cast though), but the show is in 3 parts on KZbin: “Nerd kills hot dentist,” “nerd kills boss,” and “nerd kills girlfriend, self, and mankind with avocado”
