"Oh, the thinks you can think" when Dr. Seuss' best-loved characters collide and cavort in an unforgettable musical caper!
Horton the Elephant, the Cat in the Hat and all of your favorite Dr. Seuss characters spring to life onstage in Seussical KIDS, a fantastical musical extravaganza from Tony-winners, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (Lucky Stiff, My Favorite Year, Once on This Island, Ragtime).
Transporting audiences from the Jungle of Nool to the Circus McGurkus, the Cat in the Hat, our narrator, tells the
story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust containing tiny people called the Whos, including Jojo, a
Who child, who gets in trouble for thinking too many "thinks." Horton's challenge is twofold – not only must he
protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must also guard an abandoned egg that's been left
in his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the
intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and
community are challenged and emerge triumphant!
Seussical KIDS is great fun for the whole family.!
