Seussical

Seussical creates the witty, wild and whimsical world of Dr. Seuss as it has never been seen before. As chaos erupts in the Jungle of Nool, it takes the Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, Gertrude McFuzz, and a gaggle of characters to bring harmony back to their world. The action begins when Horton hears voices from a speck of dust and discovers a tiny race of creatures, known as Whos, living on the smallest planet in the universe! Although ridiculed by the other animals in the Jungle, Horton persists in his belief that the Whos exist. Meanwhile the citizens of Whoville are having some adventures of their own. JoJo, the smallest child in the city of Whoville parallels Horton’s journey as he is ostracized for the unpopular act of thinking–an activity not encouraged by the parents and teachers of Whosville. In spite of obstacles, JoJo and Horton attempt to do what they think is right, but their path will not be easy. Horton is sold to the Circus McGurkus and eventually goes on trial with Judge Yertle the Turtle. Soon the other animals of the jungle come to understand, as Horton has always known, that “a person’s a person, no matter how small.”
