Talented young performers to bring Little Shop of Horrors to the Banbury stage this weekend
Talented young performers from an award-winning youth theatre group are preparing to bring the much-loved musical Little Shop of Horrors to the Banbury stage this weekend.
Odyssey Youth Theatre will perform the classic musical at Sibford School, Sibford Ferris, on Friday, July 31 and Saturday, August 1.
More than 30 youngsters aged between 11 and 18 are involved in the production, which blends music, drama and dark comedy.
The production tells the story of Seymour, a timid florist who discovers a mysterious plant with an unusual appetite.
As the plant begins to thrive, events take an increasingly unexpected turn, with the show combining memorable songs and a gripping storyline.
A spokesperson for Odyssey Youth Theatre said: “This production promises to be a lively and entertaining showcase of young talent, combining music, drama and a touch of the unexpected.”
Odyssey Youth Theatre will perform Little Shop of Horrors at 7.30pm on Friday and at 2.30pm and 7.30pm on Saturday.
The theatre group was awarded the NODA Youngstars Award for Best Youth Production for its high-energy tech musical Loserville in 2017.
