Join us as we present Little Shop of Horrors next weekend!

Little shop logo social
Little Shop of Horrors, a deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood smash sci-fi musical that has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for over 30 years, will be performed by CHP next weekend in the Harry M. Ward Auditorium at Mathews High School.

Shows will be at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday, April 17 and 18, and at 3 p.m. Sunday, April 19.

In the show, meek flower shop assistant Seymour (played by Chandler McHugh) discovers a mysterious plant growing during a total eclipse. The foul-mouthed, R&B-singing plant promises fame, fortune, and finally getting noticed by his crush, Audrey (played by Aleya McCurry). There’s just one tiny catch: the plant, which he names Audrey II (voiced by Trey Shinault), isn’t into sunlight and water. Instead, it prefers a more—well—carnivorous diet.

As the plant grows bigger, sassier, and far more demanding, Seymour finds himself trapped in a leafy deal that spirals wildly out of control.

The show also features the talents of Jim Anderson as Mr. Mushnik, Seymour’s stingy, irritable boss; Scott Bailey as the sadistic dentist Orin; Christina Amaral, Loren Savedge, and Aryah Williams as the very talented Motown-singing Doo-Wop girls; and Shawn Jaeger as “Everyone Else.”

Tickets are $21 in advance when purchased at these CHP outlets: Office Supply and Franktronics in Gloucester, and Mathews Pharmacy in Mathews. They are $22 online here. Student tickets are $10 with ID.

The theatre is located at 9889 Buckley Hall Road, Mathews.
