"Little Shop of Horrors" is a musical comedy about a flower shop assistant named Seymour who cultivates a plant that feeds only on human blood. Mr. Mushnik, the owner of the flower shop and Seymour’s boss, is ready to give up his dreams of having a popular flower shop on the poverty-stricken skid row when he discovers that Seymour’s plant seems to attract new business. As the unusual plant grows, the shops popularity does too, but so does the plants insatiable hunger. Seymour, pressured by both his newfound fame and demanding boss, is forced to find new ways to feed the plant, all while dealing with his ever-growing guilt. Will Seymour give in and feed his beloved Audrey 2? Come and see to find out! 🪴🏵️

What do you call a pig that has a black belt in karate? A porkchop! Owen Knapick completed a research project for his 3rd Grade computer class. Students had to choose an animal and design a poster with facts about it. Owen chose to select the pig species as his animal. Ironically, March 1st is National Pig Day! To honor this incredible holiday, Owen presented his project to Mrs. Spotts’s 3rd Grade class and Ms. Joanna and Miss Sara’s Pre-K class. The classes had a PIG-tastic time learning all about pigs! 🐖🐷🐽
