"I can't tell you how pleased I was with the script, music and Directors Guide. Everything was well organized and easy to use!"

| “After all those years being stuck on a page, Did you ever imagine you’d see me onstage?” So says the mischievous Cat in the Hat at the onset of this fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza! |

Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty have lovingly brought to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz, Lazy Mayzie, and all of the Whos of Whoville! The score emerges as a Seussian Gumbo of musical styles, ranging from Latin to pop, swing to gospel, and R&B to funk! So let your toes tap, your fingers snap, and you’re imagination run wild for “Oh, the thinks you can think, When you think about Seuss!”

Director's Note
Considerations
Seussical Junior is a great show for large groups of students who enjoy singing. It is also a good show for a cast of students who enjoy playing larger than life characters. You will need to have a number of strong singers who are also good dancers or movers to play the Wickersham Brothers and the Bird Girls.
Involve The Community
Talk to your local library or bookstore to see if you can find a time to have some of your cast members read stories to young children. Choose one of the stories that features one of the characters found in Seussical. Beyond being a good way to give back to your community, this project will also improve your cast members storytelling skills.
