Script to Stage

University of Georgia students, staff, and faculty immersed themselves into set, lighting, and costume design, music, dancing, acting, and more over the course of a semester to collaboratively bring “Little Shop of Horrors” from script to stage. The Spring 2024 UGA Theatre drag-inspired production was intended to challenge audience expectations and was seen by thousands during its 10 show run.
