WSH Presents "Little Shop of Horrors"Presented by TC West Senior High School MUSIC March 13-15 and 20-22, 2026
Based on the 1960 film by Roger Corman and featuring a book by Howard Ashman, music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Ashman, Little Shop follows meek plant store attendant Seymour, his co-worker crush Audrey, her sadistic dentist of a boyfriend and the man-eating plant that threatens them and the world as we know it.
Six women gather for a much-needed girls' night out. The plan is to eat, drink and create works of art at a local paint and sip night while celebrating a bride to be. But as the alcohol flows, so do their thoughts on motherhood and womanhood, and their carefully curated lives get hilariously and heartbreakingly real.
