Exclusive: Rob McClure, the actor Tony-nominated for his performance in the title role of the recently closed Mrs. Doubtfire, will make another quick costume change, this time for the lead in the Off Broadway hit revival of Little Shop of Horrors.
McClure will take over the role of Seymour on Tuesday, July 12, after current star Skylar Astin ends his engagement early to begin work on the new fall CBS drama series So Help Me Todd opposite Marsha Gay Harden.
The casting was announced today by Little Shop producers Tom Kirdahy, Robert Ahrens and Hunter Arnold.
McClure has starred in such Broadway productions as Beetlejuice, Something Rotten, Noises Off and Chaplin, and most recently in the title role of Mrs. Doubtfire. That musical closed May 29 after returning from a Covid hiatus in April; McClure is nominated in this Sunday’s Tony Awards for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role/Musical.
