On the twenty-first day of the month of September  in an early year of a decade not too long before our own, the human race suddenly encountered a deadly threat to its very existence... and Alex and Daisha are here to talk about it! Join the Broadway Babies as they continue their Spooky Halloween season with a musical about a mean green mother from outer space: "Little Shop of Horrors." Alex and Daisha watch the 1986 cult classic in all its grungy glory and discuss the sheer craftsmanship of Audrey II, the tightness of the plot, and a comparison of the two endings to the story.    Cast recording: Amazon | Spotify Film: YouTube | Amazon    Songs: "Little Shop of Horrors” (performed by Tichina Arnold, Michelle Weeks, and Tisha Campbell) "Grow for Me” (Rick Moranis, Tichina Arnold, Michelle Weeks, and Tisha Campbell) "Feed Me (Git It)” (Rick Moranis, Levi Stubbs, Tichina Arnold, Michelle Weeks, and Tisha Campbell) "Suddenly Seymour" (Ellen Greene, Rick Moranis, Tichina Arnold, Michelle Weeks, and Tisha Campbell) "Mean Green Mother from Outer Space” (Levi Stubbs and Chorus) Music by Alan Menken and Lyrics by Howard Ashman Distributed by UMG Recordings Inc.   Show Notes: Since we were pressed for time: The story of the Broadway revival’s butchering and fixing.
