West Allegheny presents "Little Shop of Horrors"

   West Allegheny High School has been known for its popular musicals, but it has never staged a sci-fi blockbuster-until now. Presenting for the first time, West Allegheny brings to life "Little Shop of Horrors," a rock musical that premiered in 1982 and is currently enjoying an Off-Broadway revival with a rotating cast of celebrities.
    There are three opportunities to see the show – November 7 and 9 at 7:00 p.m. and a 2:00 p.m. matinee on Nov. 10.  Ticket and additional information can be found at: https://westalleghenymusical.com/. Due to the PG13 rating of the show, viewer discretion is advised.
