I took 12 years off from doing theater for various reasons and got sucked back in last year. I ended up playing Charlie Brown in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown for my community theater, got talked into getting on the board for the group, and am directing Little Shop of Horrors for them this summer.
I probably don't have to tell you this, but make sure you have your prop situation for LSOH nailed down as early as possible. The guy who directed ours rented a set of plants sight unseen which turned out to be broken, unusable trash. We were still gluing pieces onto the rebuilt props a half hour before curtain, and the show just barely escaped being a complete clusterfuck on all counts.

It wound up being fun anyway. I'm one of the few people, I think, to simultaneously work the puppet and perform vocals for the Plant. There are many good reasons not to do this, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Just give me better puppets next time, thanks.
