Jinkx Monsoon, the RuPaul's Drag Race star, actor, singer and comedian, is now playing Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors at off-Broadway’s Westside Theatre opposite Corbin Bleu's Seymour. She recently dropped by the Broadway.com studio to perform Audrey's heartrending number, "Somewhere That's Green," accompanied by Will van Dyke on keys.
"[Somewhere That's Green] is a song that I've been singing for a very, very long time, but I've been singing it comically," said Jinkx. "And now, I'm being asked to sing it earnestly—and I don't do sincerity very often, so this has been a fun challenge and I'm really enjoying it."
Now in its fifth year off-Broadway, Little Shop of Horrors features a book and lyrics by Grammy and Academy Award winner Howard Ashman and music by Tony and Academy Award winner Alan Menken. Michael Mayer directs.
