Past: Seussical the Musical

“Seussical” is a musical comedy based on the Dr. Seuss books: “Horton Hears a Who!,” “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” “The Lorax,” “Green Eggs and Ham,” “Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories,” “Horton Hatches the Egg,” “I Had Trouble in Getting to Solla Sollew,” “McElligot’s Pool,” “Hunches in Bunches,” “If I Ran the Circus,” “The Butter Battle Book,” “Oh, the Tinks You Can Think!,” “The Cat in the Hat,” “The Sneetches and Other Stories,” “Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?,” “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” and “One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish.” “Horton Hears a Who” tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust containing Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to a butter battling military school for thinking too many “thinks.” Horton’s attention to the speck of dust and his “loitering” care of Mayzie LaBird’s egg has elicited taunting and accusations from the rest of the animal kingdom, except for Gertrude McFuzz, who longs for his attention, and JoJo, whose “thinks” save them all in the end.
