Filmmaker and star of stage and screen Graham Phillips will join the cast as Seymour, reuniting with former 13: The Musical co-star Elizabeth Gillies (“Victorious”, “Dynasty”), who extends her sold out run as Audrey.
They begin performances together on Tuesday, June 17, for a limited engagement through July 27. The smash hit production continues in its sixth year Off-Broadway at the Westside Theatre, with tickets on sale through January 2027.
Robert Ahrens says:
“We are so thrilled that Liz is extending. She not only gives a spectacular performance as Audrey, but she also brings so much joy and camaraderie to the company.”
Producer Tom Kirdahy says:
“We are really excited to now see Liz reunite onstage with her friend, the incredibly talented Graham Phillips. We cannot wait to see him bring his Seymour to life at the Westside Theatre!”
