Experience the Magic of Live Theater: Cypress Falls High School’s Golden Eagle Theatre Company Presents 'Little Shop of Horrors'
The Golden Eagle Theatre Company, the award-winning theater program at Cypress Falls High School in Houston is set to bring the hit musical Little Shop of Horrors to the stage this January. With performances scheduled for January 9th, 10th, and 11th at 7 PM, along with a matinee on January 11th at 2 PM, this production promises an unforgettable experience for theater enthusiasts and first-time attendees alike.
Little Shop of Horrors, a dark comedy with music by Alan Menken and book and lyrics by Howard Ashman, has charmed audiences for decades. Based on Roger Corman's cult film and featuring a screenplay by Charles Griffith, the story follows Seymour Krelborn, a meek flower shop assistant, who discovers a mysterious—and carnivorous—plant named Audrey II. As Seymour nurtures the plant, he realizes its growing appetite could change his life forever, albeit with dire consequences.
The show, originally produced by the WPA Theatre and later at New York’s Orpheum Theatre, has become a staple of American musical theater, thanks to its quirky humor, memorable music, and thought-provoking themes. Hits like “Suddenly, Seymour” and “Somewhere That’s Green” are among the show’s standout numbers, drawing in audiences with a mix of nostalgia and vibrant storytelling.
Tickets for Little Shop of Horrors are available online at goldeneagletheatre.ludus.com. Priced at $10 for students and $15 for general admission, these performances offer an affordable opportunity to support local talent while enjoying a professional-caliber show.
Why Support Local Youth Theater?
High school theater productions like those from the Golden Eagle Theatre Company are more than just performances—they are community events that foster creativity, teamwork, and personal growth. By attending, patrons directly support the students’ artistic education and celebrate the dedication of young performers, directors, and crew members.
“Live theater is a unique experience that brings people together,” said a Golden Eagle Theatre representative. “It’s a chance to see talent develop and to connect with the community in a meaningful way.”
