Interview with our director for Little Shop of Horrors, Scott Albert

TC: Describe Little Shop of Horrors in 3 words.
SA: FUN + QUIRKY + ENGAGING

TC: Welcome to the TC family! What shows or theatres have you recently been a part of?
SA: Although I am new to the TC community, I am excited to get the opportunity to work here. My directing credits range over 20+ years in NY and Boston. Over the past few years, I have directed locally at Fort Mill Community Playhouse: Snapshots, 25th Annual Spelling Bee, Next to Normal, First Date. Rock Hill Theater: A Catered Affair. Lancaster Community Theater: Bye, Bye Birdie. Matthews Playhouse: Shrek Jr. and a dinner theater experience, The Anniversary, which I wrote and directed.

TC: What about this show makes you excited to direct it?
SA: I am excited to be directing Little Shop of Horrors because it's a cult classic - a show with a passionate fanbase, unforgettable characters, and a wildly fun blend of dark comedy, campy and catchy music. Taking on such an iconic piece gives me the unique opportunity to honor its legacy while finding a fresh, creative way to make it our own.
