Suddenly,Skylar Astin!

ThePitch Perfectstar, 34, joined the company of the Off-Broadway revival ofLittle Shop of Horrorsat the Westside Theatre Tuesday night.

In an exclusive first look shared with PEOPLE, Astin can be seen as Seymour Krelborn, the down-on-his-luck flower shop attendant whose life turns around when he discovers a mysterious plant after an unexpected total eclipse of the sun.

Naming the plant Audrey II after the woman whom he’s secretly in love with, Seymour develops a close bond with the newest addition to Skid Row’s favorite florist — even though Audrey II has an unusual appetite for human blood.
