• "Suppertime" from Litt...
Watch Mushnik get munched by the biggest, most mobile Audrey II in the Rocky Mountain west.
The puppet was impressive. Until it leaned down and PICKED MUSHNIK CLEAN OFF THE GROUND. Then it became a master piece. GODDAMN.
TheBigDave880 FEEEEEDDD Me you F***
I wonder how they did that.
I think that the voice of Audrey was supposed to be sort a sweet-talker. Levi Stubbs did a good job with Audrey II. I rather think that the voice of this Audrey II is deceptively soothing and reminiscent of vinegar.
such a good way of putting it..omg
Personally, I think its mouth movements could be more animated, but I don't care, this is a GREAT Audrey II puppet. The BEST I have seen outside the movie! Major kudos to the people who have built it, and to the people operating it!
The puppet definitely makes up for the lackluster acting!
i believe it still holds up.
And the Audrey 2 voice
Mushnik: SEYMOUR! SEYMOUR!! *gets eaten*
Audience: *claps, cheers*
This puppet behaves EXACTLY like a version I was trying to design myself, just a couple of weeks before this video appeared. One that snatches up the characters instead of them having to crawl in. This is an amazing Audrey II puppet.
This puppet is AMAZING excellent work!!!
every once and a while I come back to these videos to admire how freaking cool and impressive this puppet is
That's why I'm here tonight 😂
I love this puppet. And though it lacks a little soul, one of the best vocals I've seen!
I worked with this pupet during our production of Little shop. it is one of the most amazing puppet ever!
THAT PLANT IS SO COOL OMG
That was pretty good. I like the content expression on this Audrey's face.
And this is only Pod 3, isn’t it? Unless they keep with the same puppet, which is something I wouldn’t put past them (this thing is massive already), the plant gets even _bigger_ after it eats Mushnik. That’s incredibly impressive.
The guy being eaten could’ve acted a bit more scared yeesh
The plant's voice actor was just wonderful. :) Niiiice plant too!
I was the Audrey II puppeteer for the third and fourth pods this summer for the Kaleidoscope Players.
That is an AMAZING plant i love his singing
it doesnt have to be black, it just needs a deep, booming, and demanding voice.
at 4:13 Audrey II looks like a dragon i dont know why thats something i noticed
WOW that is one hell of a plant!!!
KUDOS!!!
DAT. PLANT.
that puppet is INTENSE... really nice performance
Awesome Audrey 2 voice!
the way it ate Mushnik look so terrifying. Well done!
whoa this is my favorite puppet on youtube! how did it stand up like that? or better yet, how did the person operate it like that? plus the voice is really good!!
The voice was terrible.
now that is one legit Audrey 2 puppet
@AlisonWonderland1951
Thanks for the nice comments. The thing with Mushnik and the singing plant is called "suspension of disbelief." It's something we all do without trying up until the age of twelve . . .
I love the applause when the guy gets eaten.
This is the best puppeted version of A2 ever. The guy who posted this, can you put more of this one on, so that we can all watch the entire thing coz it looks ace.
How did the people get "eaten"? Was there a slide or something? It was super cool! I LOVE this plant, its the best of RUclips!!!!!
I’d say after it is completely up vertical, they change positioning so they are feet down quickly then jump down to where I assume an exit is behind Audrey 2
Feed Me is up and ready for viewing!
Ik I’m like,,,,,10 yEaRs late but I actually like both the singer and the plant here. The voice is different but kinda refreshing 👌
Great voice for the plant (until the "come ons" anyway). Amazing puppetry! How did you manage that on stage?
That is an amazing plant, I want it
A bit too comedic for my taste. I like this scene to be spooky as hell.
It’s not comedic at all. It sucks lol. Sorry if I’m being mean. This scene is suppose to be chaotic and Seymour is the calmest person I’ve ever seen.
Chris Roldan u suck
Yes it spooked me a smidge
How did you operate this magnificent puppet? I'm especially interested in how it ate mr mushnik.! this is by far the best audrey ii puppet I have ever seen.!
Yes I agree only this time it's mushnik that is eatten
One operator inside the head moves the jaws up and down. Another standing behind the head with stirrups and reins controls head movement. At the end of the 15 ft. chute are 4 more operators that control pivot movement and counterbalance the head with sandbags. It's quite a ride and you plop out on a mattress.
Ok everyone is saying that Audrey 2s voice sucks, it really doesn’t. He’s an awesome singer, it just is a very unique choice for Audrey 2’s voice. Whoever hosted the show must have actively chosen that actor as the best choice on hand for that voice.
Thank you! This is exactly what I was thinking!
Might be a fun project for us to shoot next spring. I'll contact her "keeper" and see if we can do it. Stay tuned.
@puppetmaker77
The Broadway remount, done the same year as this community theater production, used a hydraulic puppet that actually extended over the audience.
Ours, designed by an engineer from surplus yard parts, used six human operators (two of whom were embedded in the head) a cantilevered system, and was praised by people who saw BOTH shows as being the better of the two.
BTW, our system is simple enough that with training, has been used in HS productions without our assistance.
The plant looks amazing but the singer sucks
+Royal Scott The singer's not bad, his voice range just isn't what people are used to hearing in the song.
Most people are used to the deep-voiced version used in the film, that many live stage versions try to incorporate because, let's face it, it sounded cool as heck.
+Royal Scott I agree entirely
Its not just the range.. it's honestly just not nearly as soulful... and therefore disappointing 😕
Eh, I heard worse.
Ugh ur right
@RedwoodTheElf
No aerial rigging is involved. It's all human power and leverage.
See "The Making of Audrey II" on this channel.
the puppet is fab
the voice is good
but needs more grrr at time if ya get me
:)
Best school made Audrey II EVER!!!!!!
@jackiunder
The amount it can open is limited by the length of the guy's arms who is inside the mouth. This is not a hydraulic puppet like the one on Broadway.
Could you guys post a "Behind-the-Scenes" video on how this puppet works?
No one can touch Levi Stubbs as Audrey II! I've watched several vids of Suppertime and the voices lack the soul and flavor that Mr. Stubbs possessed. Still not bad though.
Moneys in the plant? Nice reference to the original 1960 film.
the part at the end and i mean before he ate him was horrifying to say the least
woah...Audrey II looked like a dinosaur when he was eating Mr. Mushnik. I knew it was coming, yet it was still pretty scary. Kudos!
@ovationplayers
If it makes Alison feel better, he can imagine the plant whispering to Seymour instead...
But wow...that IS a massively impressive A2 puppet...the rigging necessary to lift Mushnik off the stage and swallow him must have been tricky to rig up.
Freakin sweet audrey 2 puppet!!!!
That plant..WOW
wow great audrey!
amazing plant :)
Uhh, the mouth puppeteer is strapped in so he doesn't fall out when the head tilts down. And it takes a lot of reps to sustain the lip synch.
But if you have built a better manual puppet design, we'd love to see it in action!
I had this as a school play and this scene was pretty similar to this.
I wasn't able to find the version you compared ours to on your site, so guess I can't comment on that . . . .
As for YOUR voice, keep working; breath support, head resonance, vowel production, those sorts of things. You'll get there someday.
The puppet lools amazing! How on earth did they do it???
It's right here on this channel ruclips.net/video/eneckWkbyFI/видео.html
i dont think the voice is that wondeful, grant james who did our audrey II voice, was amazing! he did an american black mans voice, and it was fantastic!
Dang I want to see the feed me version
Cool
That Mushnik sounded like a bad impersonation of Christopher Walken, but the plant puppet was really good!
I did this show at my school and we had the actual plants from the west end show! My school takes shows seriously
Do you have pictures or something...just asking
Shannonaspeyxo what kind of boujee ass school did you go to??
Sollux "Pollux" Captor fr
This is one of the best Audrey plants i've seen T_T ~ Did you rent it or make it?
This was an AWESOME plant but the acting didn't feel quite right... I still liked this a lot.
I'm sure it was -- but I'm amazed that you were in the audience for our 2004 community theater production too . . .
thanks :), i loved the plant though, and your mushnik and seymour are great. I just think audrey could of sounded a bit more soulful and rough, it sounds to polished. The plant is the best ive ever seen though. And sadly we couldnt film our version, thanks x
1:54 He knows you're life of criiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimme!!!
1:59 I think it's suppertiiiiiiiiiime!
WOW!
ok thanks
Thx for your comment!
I love the puppet but Audri II has a voice crack
@mooshy2
Next time we do the show I'll make sure you have an opportunity to try out for the part.
Briliant Plant, is it available for rent?
btw do u av the feed me? and dnt feed the plants?
wud love to see how you did these :)
thnk u xoxo
they couldnt find anybody who sounds like levi stubbs nobody.
jovel hamilton maybe they’re doing their own interpretations?
Check your central library for a conductor's score.
BTW I played that solo on a keyboard bass and no one knew the difference -- sounds just like a Precision, doesn't it?
there misses pep! the plant sings much too less freaky :/
yays! maybe show how we can build our own too?
@ovationplayers thanks!
Anyone have contact information for this designer? I would like to buy the plans for this Audrey 2
He didn't knock.
Can do. Give me a few days . . .
what is he saying after "They're gonna put you in jail" ?
I know this is the most delayed response ever, but he's saying "It's USDA Prime"
I wish the plant was little bit more spooky
the plant is huge how much that baby cost?
I want to be in this show sometime.
The plant is great but the guy voicing him sounds like he's bored as hell.
@ovationplayers i meant the song
No offense to the guy voicing the plant. He has a decent voice... but the LEGENDARY Levi Stubs is tough act to follow and huge shoes to fill. Over all a great looking production!!
Sorry, Levi wasn't available that weekend. Just the director's bf.
@@ovationplayers Well, I'd imagine Levi wasn't available that weekend since he's sort of DEAD... So I get your point.
@@SEFYH No, you don't get my point. Levi Stubbs was very much ALIVE when this production was mounted. I covered 4 Tops in circuit bands throughout the 70s, my college buddies formed EW&F, and that's me on the Precision Bass solo you heard. Glad you appreciate funk.
@@ovationplayers Dude... Where is all this ENERGY coming from?? My intial comment was complimentary. I just simply stated that the guy voicing the plant was no Levi Stubs. I thought he did a decent enough job in his own right. And if Levi was ALIVE during this production and you have so many big musical "connections." Why in the hell you didn't ask Levi Stubbs himself?? Don't get mad at me because your plant sounds more like Pat Boone. You should have used the so called resources available to you during that time!
It means one of us is seriously out of touch -- when YOU produce Little Shop we'll welcome your video response and talent -- but without needing to insult. Until then, save the troll bait: this is isn't our first rodeo.
Personally, I think I do a better Audrey 2 than this guy
Markymus Prime me too. I can sing deeper than him and I'm female
Yeah me too
Pretty good Audrey II puppetry. Voice, not. He didn't sound, erm, BLACK enough.
I liked the way Mushnik got munched, though.
You'd think with a plant of that caliber that the direction of the play would have been handled better. I lost all urgency during this scene. Did the actors take sleeping pills before they performed?
This scene is where mushnik tries to cut seymour out of the picture by getting him indicted for murder, and seymour is KILLING his DAD! Could the stakes have been higher? If this is what the play is like at this point, I wonder just how slow it got other times.
Still not an awful performance.
The actors were a bit boring and Audrey II's voice actor wasn't black enough but the Audrey II was great. That kind of motive skill is hard to find in a model.
Sominex is up.
do u have feed me?
(sings) he's got your number now he knows just what you done
you've got no place to hide you got no where to run
he knows your life of crime
i think it supper time
I love the plant. Who made this?
The singer doesn’t sound like he’s trying
