This Seymour is incredible!! My boyfriend played Seymour back when my school did this show, and I still say that the Seymour in the video is a thousand times better.. :D
this is awesome! i luv that long pause between the lines feed me and i beg your pardon! what was your puppet made of? i like how it glows in the dark!!!!!! 8D
the plant's voice was really good, and in terms of the low pitch that the voice usually requires, it was really good. my only criticism is that the voice needed a little more roughness to it, and at points he could have gone up an octave when he was singing really low to kinda bring some more energy to it. really well done though, seymour was really great and lively as well
I've watched most of the video's of this production of little shop of horrors on youtube and it looks amazing! it's so funny and everyones really good! i love the scenery with the two floors, i wish the whole production was on youtube :) lol x
I'm sorry, but the pause was still far too long to be realistic, even when compared to other LSOH plays. If my fly trap started talking to me, I would have reacted faster.
@Shade183 Its not suppose to be realistic, its suppose to be funny and over the top. Everyones entitled to the own personal i guess but i think it was good :)
lol... Audrey and the dentist was great. I almost cracked up when Seymour danced like that. But Audrey 2 was too serious. He was too plain and not emotional at all.... 3/5...
I don't agree with the great big pause neiva at the beginning- too long. The plant needs to have more manipulation and sarchasm in his voice bit boring tbh, its the same in every line.
My School is doing LSOH in a few weeks and i'm playing the voice of Audrey 2 & i'm a 15yr old girl! Can't wait will get some vids on here hopefuli wen we've done it!
omg you are really amazing. My i am girl and have been given the part of seymour at ym performing arts school. I am a tad worried. Any advise on how to play it would be appriciated! x
I adore the Seymour! So excellent! His voice is wonderful and his stage presence is so strong! But... the Audrey II has a lot lacking. A good deep voice and strong, but its so monotone. None of the emotion that was in the original or the higher pitches that made his voice sound so slick and sickly and awesome. I love the puppet and puppetry though! And I had to laugh at Seymour's booty shake!
The reason rick moranis doesn't wear a cap in the film is because it's not essential to the script, however there are lines in the stage script that refer to seymour's baseball cap being found as evidence at Orin the dentist's surgery. I hope that makes sence. :)
That was really funny. xD I've never seen a more animated Seymour anywhere, he looked like he was having a great time with it. Your Audrey II is awesome, too, whoever was controlling the puppet is made of win. I agree with what a few other people said, though, could've improved on the voice a bit.
I love this Seymour! He's a great singer, and a great actor. He nailed this part even better than Rick Moranis. Not to mention this guy is pretty cute, to boot.
I loved it, but there's no emotion in Audrey 2's voice. He has the same tone when he says every word. Accent the words more! Other than that, Great job Seymour!
OMG! I have liked watch every scene you have posted up of this show because you are just so good and captivating as seymour! Like I literally laugh my ass off of my chair watching you! You are an amazing actor and have a fantastic voice!
The plant looked amazing, and the lipsyncing was good, the only thing I noticed was that who ever voiced the plant seemed to slow down a lot so that who ever was operating the plant could catch up in places that it dragged.
This is the second best stage version of LSOH on You Tube, you guys were marvelous! Seymour is just awesome, as is Audrey, Orin, and of course Audrey 2!
There's someone inside of it! Our school is doing this production... GO BEAR RIVER! But, We are renting the plant from the Utah Shakespearean Festival Organization... (it's like a professional one! Real nice) And someone is inside it controling it.
Yeah! We did this one just last year. I was the "Stage Manager" and also painted/designed sets. It was very fun! But the plant weighed somewhere around 250 pounds!
OMG please come to NY and sing to me. lol so amaazingg i love you ahhhh!!! great acting. i watched the other vids and the girls are horrible tho. if i saw this id be like "thank god for that seymour" LOL
He did ok. I just hate how everyone over plays the comic side of Seymour's personality. The character has more to offer than comedy but usually that's all you see. Overall he was funny but like others before me I thought he was a ham.
THAT WAS FUNNY!!!! Seymour's little dance was pretty good and dorky like it should be his reaction to the first "Feed me!" was hilarious! 5 Starts and favorite!
Overall, great job. Great set, great casting, and great job with the Audrey II movements. Couple problems I had. I don't think the pauses were funny. It was funny at first, but went on too long and lost the effect. The dancing was funny but distracting. It took away from the plant's lines, especially considering the audiences reaction. Seymour is the lead, but every line is important especially here when Audrey shows his personality. You couldn't hear a word he said.
the plant is so vibrant! the pause is too long i thought seymour was going to like kill the plant and make stuffed cabbage... in fact it was that long i couldve made stuffed cabbage.
From 1:04 to 1:47 is a horribly to long pause, there is another pause to long from the end of the song to "so go get it". My biggest disappointment is seymour singing the "i don't know section". This is the first song in the play for seymour to belt it out and i was just hoping for him to do that.
As far as emotion and line delivery goes, I believe it should be semi immediate shock after the first "feed me" not a grudgingly long pause, the next line, "twoey, you talked..." would compensate his great surprise. emotion in the finale of the song was something to be desired. he's essentially saying he'd murder for audrey's sake! I mean, Audrey was just verbally and physically abused infront of Seymour... he loves her, doesn't he? Honestly...pssh
As for the vocals, The Plant I thought was pretty good.. Seymour: taking it down the octave at the end (guy sure looks like plantfood to me)and essentially copying the original CD's version of 'I don't know" made the number a bit dry.
As for movement, I found that Seymour just stood stagnant for much of the number, barring, of course, the overacted twist section.
I detected that the actors had a complete loss of knowing what the scene is completely about. This scene is pivotal to Seymour's future and playing it mostly for camp humor was taking it too far. The previous number (Mushnik and Son) creates a nice balance between the tense and desperate theme of this song.
responce to Indo/filipino audrey the girl countering me in our production is Filipino/Black. She is so fine and sooo talented. Reppin' the preps. LAter!
Our school is doing LSOH right now...I can only hope that it'll turn out as good as this one. Kudos to the guy that played Seymour. Great voice, great timing, and FANTASTIC dance moves!
Our high school just did this, and we got nominated for 5 tommy tunes. (that's the texas state high school equivalent to the Tony's) One being Best actor : Justin Finch as Seymour.
That was great. Haha. My little sister's doing this show for their highschool production this year. Haha. I love how Seymour milked that pause for all it was worth. xD He did a great job.
Wow. My director just announced that the school's production next year would be Little Shop of Horrors so i looked at clips on youtube. I think this version of Seymour is one of the most entertaining, has one of the best voices, and is by far, the best looking. Ha ha.
I think I'd want to be Audrey, but i don't think the world's ready for an indian/filipino audrey.
Wow, I'm impressed! A high-school actor with a sense of comedic timing! Who knew? Lol. Most are afraid of silence and spit their lines out as fast as possible. That takes guts. Kudos to you! *tips hat*
Nice, and the pause was used to great effect, it drew out the tension and comedy aspect of that moment when the plant first speaks, good stuff, hats off to ye.
i dont think the pause was too long. He judged according to the audiences reaction and they seemed to appreciate it. The best seymour on youtube that i've seen

As far as emotion and line delivery goes, I believe it should be semi immediate shock after the first "feed me" not a grudgingly long pause, the next line, "twoey, you talked..." would compensate his great surprise. emotion in the finale of the song was something to be desired. he's essentially saying he'd murder for audrey's sake!

I detected that the actors had a complete loss of knowing what the scene is completely about. This scene is pivotal to Seymour's future and playing it mostly for camp humor was taking it too far. The previous number (Mushnik and Son) creates a nice balance between the tense and desperate theme of this song.

Our school is doing LSOH right now...I can only hope that it'll turn out as good as this one. Kudos to the guy that played Seymour. Great voice, great timing, and FANTASTIC dance moves!

Our high school just did this, and we got nominated for 5 tommy tunes. (that's the texas state high school equivalent to the Tony's) One being Best actor : Justin Finch as Seymour.

This was pretty good. My high school did this show this year. But I must say that our plant was a lot better. We had the actual one from broadway...

That was great. Haha. My little sister's doing this show for their highschool production this year. Haha. I love how Seymour milked that pause for all it was worth. xD He did a great job.

And Seymour has some rad dance moves. Seriously, he could dance like that anyway and I'd tap that.

Seymour was excellent. He has a future in musicals.

Wow. My director just announced that the school's production next year would be Little Shop of Horrors so i looked at clips on youtube. I think this version of Seymour is one of the most entertaining, has one of the best voices, and is by far, the best looking. Ha ha.
I think I'd want to be Audrey, but i don't think the world's ready for an indian/filipino audrey.

LOL agreed that Seymour rocks. And I would be ready for a filipino/indian Audrey. As long as she can sing?

Wow, I'm impressed! A high-school actor with a sense of comedic timing! Who knew? Lol. Most are afraid of silence and spit their lines out as fast as possible. That takes guts. Kudos to you! *tips hat*

Nice, and the pause was used to great effect, it drew out the tension and comedy aspect of that moment when the plant first speaks, good stuff, hats off to ye.
