The Brandywiners, a not-for-profit ARTS organization established in 1932, presents Seussical, an experience sure to be fun for the whole family! Narrated by the ever-popular Cat in the Hat, Seussical tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos.
“Oh, the thinks you can think” when Dr. Seuss’ best-loved characters collide and cavort in an unforgettable musical caper! Seussical, narrated by the ever-popular Cat in the Hat, tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many “thinks.”
Horton faces a double challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, 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.
The Brandywiners’ performers of all ages are excited to portray the characters from the familiar Dr. Seuss fables.
