"The meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant he names "Audrey II" - after his coworker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it, BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II's out of his world origins and intent towards global domination!"

"During the fall of 2016, we manifested CSU Ferguson to put a face onto the faceless hoodie. Since then we have toured from the South Bay to Spokane, Washington and across the Bay to the San Francisco International Arts Festival, sharing our hopes for an Inclusive America.

In 2018, the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival acknowledged our work with a KCACTF Citizen Artist Award for insisting that theatrical production is central to the urgent social justice conversations. The US in the U.S. Ensemble continues to help audiences ready for the Browning of America because, despite efforts to make us disappear from the mainstream American Imae, everyone needs a little reminder that: We have always been here and we are going to stay here; so let's figure out how to play together.  All are welcome. All are needed. As always our Act Two is our/your Community Circle. Your presence is critical as we develop a new production for a May 2020 San Francisco International Festival Production." -A. Fajilan

"Based on George Orwell's novel, this production takes place in an America, not distant from our own. Social media has become the people's opium, Big Brother sees all, and the devices are watching us! This new society is built on fear and scapegoating of immigrants, people of color, differing religious faiths, and people of diverse sexual orientations; anyone who can be considered "other" is marginalized. But as Orwell predicted: "The people will not look up from their screens long enough to notice what's happening!"
