Little Shop of Horrors


I had the pleasure of hitching a ride out to San Diego with Jake's parents to see him perform in SDCC's spring musical Little Shop of Horrors. It was just a quick trip, but what fun!

Highlights included:

  • Our impromptu tour guide Jim (who also hitched a ride with us)
  • Lunch at a local Italian restaurant in Gila Bend
  • Seeing the show (twice!)
  • Catching all the added gags the second time
  • Analyzing the hidden meanings of the show
  • Leisurely breakfasts
  • A mini-piano concert by Jake
  • Meeting a CollegePlus student while striking the set!
  • Running with Ms. Jessica in the park
  • Multiple trips to Starbucks
The entire cast did a phenomenal job, but (not surprisingly) I thought Jake did the best of all! He played both of his roles (the dentist and the voice of the plant) very well and it was a joy to watch him perform, even though both his roles were antagonists.
