Euphoria's Maude Apatow to Make Stage Debut as Audrey in 'Little Shop of Horrors'
Maude Apatow will be making her stage debut next month!
The 25-year-old actress, best known for playing Lexi Howard in the HBO series Euphoria, will take over the role of Audrey in the Off-Broadway production of the beloved musical Little Shop of Horrors.
“I have long admired the emotional intelligence and vulnerability Maude has displayed on television and in film. She’s a natural fit for Audrey,” director Michael Mayer said in a statement. “It delighted me to learn that, as a child, Little Shop was her gateway into her lifelong love of performing, and that this show gets to be her professional stage debut. We’re thrilled to have her become a part of the Little Shop legacy.”

Maude will join the show on February 7 and play a limited engagement through April 2. She will star opposite Tony winner Matt Doyle as Seymour.
Little Shop of Horrors follows Seymour, a down-on-his-luck florist with a crush on his co-worker Audrey. When he discovers a mysterious – and voracious – plant, suddenly Seymour and Audrey are thrust into an epic battle that will determine the fate of the entire human race.
Maude is one of the celebs who recently commented on the “nepo baby” debate. She is the daughter of producer Judd Apatow and actress Leslie Mann.
